    Trying to figure out the best way to transition my existing domain before I build a Lay Theme site.

    Currently, my domain is registered with Squarespace, where I’ve transferred it using CNAME and DNS settings to a site I built using the SuperHi editor. Would it be easiest for me to first completely delete my Squarespace domain (therefore, taking down my website for a period of time) and recreating the same domain with Dreamhost, etc.?

    It’s not possible to do this type of domain forwarding with this theme/Wordpress, correct?

      Dear Natalie

      @natalieee

      If you have a domain registered and hosted by Dreamhost that also has Wordpress installed, there should be no issue in using Laytheme. Installing it within your Theme directory:

      Appearance > Themes >

      As for deleting any previous domains or websites, this shouldn't be necessary if on a different domain altogether. If issue is related to you activating your License key on a new domain - this can be remedied by contacting licensekeys@laytheme.com and asking to reset your key manually.

      I hope i have understood correctly Natalie, apologies if i have misunderstood.

      Talk soon & have a wonderful day 🌸

      Sincerely
      Richard
