Ghost blog as subdomain to Shopify site: Setting up DNS

[dean_v]

I’m trying to set up our Ghost(Pro) blog to be accessed as a subdomain of our website hosted by Shopify (https://joeveo.com)

I’ve attached the DNS configuration. The blog subdomain is forwarded using what our domain provider calls cloaked forwarding to https://joeveo.ghost.io. Our Ghost blog is configured with a single link back to our main website.

Browsing to http(s)://blog.joeveo.com/ works.

Clicking the link on the blog page to go back to our home page does not work. One ends up with a blank browser window, with the address http://blog.joeveo.com/ in the address bar.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this working? thanks, dean

Hi Hannah, I’ve written to support a couple times without getting a reply, so I was trying here.

For anyone else who has this problem: Sarah at Ghost showed the correct way to configure the blog subdomain, which was to simply have it point to joeveo.ghost.io instead of the config as shown in the screenshot I posted (pointing to parking.namesilo.com) generated by the domain provider’s forwarding tool.
