Set up

First of all, all products are supported by two hosts:

1. render.prodmake.com/?id=[product ID]

2. [product ID].prodmake.com

As an example, the Prodmake blog that you can see on the website prodmake.com is also displayed on:

1. https://blog.prodmake.com

2. http://94aa4c0c-2042-4214-a316-a4ba77747559.prodmake.com

3. https://render.prodmake.com/?id=94aa4c0c-2042-4214-a316-a4ba77747559

ID parameter that you see in the second and third links can be found in the "Details" tab of your product.

CNAME Setup

In the DNS control panel of your provider (I recommend Cloudflare), you will need to add two CNAME records. Let's say your domain is madebyazamat.com, in your case the CNAME records will look like this:

So in your case, the Content field will be your ID taken from the "Details" tab on the subdomain prodmake.com (similar to the second link above) which is also visible in the "Domains" section of your product:

Result

After adding the domain, verification may take up to 12 hours, but it's rare. Usually, everything works noticeably faster. The first load of your domain may give a certificate error. The second load will provide you with an SSL certificate using Prodmake's internal systems.
