How can I create a subdomain with separate pages in Webflow for an existing project?

TL;DR
  • Create a new Webflow project for the subdomain.
  • Add the subdomain in Webflow’s Project Settings under Hosting.
  • Update DNS records at your domain registrar by adding a CNAME pointing to proxy-ssl.webflow.com or A records (75.2.70.75 and 99.83.190.102).
  • Set the subdomain as default in Webflow Hosting settings (optional).
  • Publish the project, then wait for DNS propagation.

To create a subdomain with separate pages in Webflow for an existing project, you need to configure hosting and domain settings properly. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth setup.

1. Add a New Webflow Project

  • Create a separate Webflow project for the subdomain. Webflow does not support hosting subdomains within the same project.

2. Configure the Subdomain in Webflow

  • Go to Project Settings of the new Webflow project.
  • Navigate to the Hosting tab and find the Custom Domains section.
  • Add your subdomain (e.g., sub.example.com).

3. Update DNS Records

  • Go to your domain registrar's DNS settings.
  • Add a CNAME record, pointing the subdomain (sub.example.com) to proxy-ssl.webflow.com.
  • If using A records instead, set them to Webflow’s IPs:
  • (a) 75.2.70.75
  • (b) 99.83.190.102

4. Set the Subdomain as Default (Optional)

  • In the Webflow Hosting settings of your new project, set the subdomain as the default domain to avoid www/non-www conflicts.

5. Publish the New Webflow Project

  • Click Publish Site in Webflow to make sure the subdomain version is live.
  • Wait for DNS changes to propagate (usually within a few hours).

Summary

To create a subdomain in Webflow for an existing project: create a new Webflow project, add the subdomain in Project Settings, update DNS records at your registrar, and publish the project in Webflow. This ensures a clean separation between the main website and subdomain.
