New page

To move a domain from your FTP Based (Bravehost) website over to your Site Builder (Bravesites) website. Please refer to the following steps below.

== Step 1: Disable your FTP based Website ==
As you cannot have your domain attached to multiple live services at the same time, you will want to ''disable'' the Bravehost website. Disabling the Bravehost website will enable you to select the domain from the list of registered domains when it comes time to attach your domain to your Bravesites website later on.

'''To disable your FTP hosted website, please do the following:'''

[[File:BravehostDisableWebsite.png]]

# Navigate to the "Web Hosting" page.
# Locate your website entry and click the blue "disable" text under the '''enabled''' column.

== Step 2: Attach domain to Site Builder Website ==
Once the website is disabled, you'll want to then navigate to the "Site Builder" page.

Once on the Site Builder page, please do the following:

#: [[File:BravesitesAddADomain.png]]
# Under the domains heading locate and click on "add a domain"
#: [[File:BravesitesAttachADomain.png]]
# On the new page, under "Select a Domain Option", select Use one of my registered domain(s).
# Select the domain you wish to use from the dropdown and click "continue".
