This guide explains how to replace, within an Infomaniak Web hosting, the address of a site currently a subdomain (https://dev.domain.xyz for example) with the main domain (https://domain.xyz).

Preamble

• The operations in brief:
  1. We start with a site created and accessible via the URL of the main domain dev.domain.xyz.
  2. We add an alias domain.xyz.
  3. We swap the two types (the main domain becomes an alias and the alias becomes the main domain).
  4. We remove the old name dev.domain.xyz.
• Note that the site remains in the original folder on the server; the name of this location may be in the form /sites/dev.domain.xyz but this has absolutely no impact on the live site.
• Also, familiarize yourself with the last chapter of this other guide.
