Apologies for the simple question if the answer is ‘no’ - as that seems to be what i have found, but i just read the end of this thread - [Invalid DNS records](https://community.sitejet.io/t/invalid-dns-records/176) - which seems to suggest if the domain is moved to sitejet then its possible to move / rebuild my webdesign site on sitejet & have that same domain name for that site itself & the whitelabelling / customer portal & previews etc? Is this correct or do i need to buy another domain for just the whitelabelling? I was hoping to create / use a subdomain but from what i can see it can’t be [webdesign.sharetocreate.com](http://webdesign.sharetocreate.com). My domain is with namecheap & the draft wordpress site is with ecowebhosting so the nameservers point to them. Many thanks

The answer is simple: Yes. 🙂

You can use the same domain. The whitelabel feature just adds certain subdomains to access the customer portal etc.

I think this must be because there can only be one \* wildcard set? The other asterix is an A name so i was guessing it’s something different, but i added them manually and that worked. Seems to suggest some previews & the newer site manager wont work correctly so will wait to finish the setup and try it out as links sent to client on sitejet urls.
