Pending or needs attention
- Compare the DNS record type, name, and value with the current values shown in LinkStack.
- Confirm the LinkStack TXT ownership record exists exactly as shown.
- Remove conflicting A, AAAA, or CNAME records for the same hostname.
- Wait for DNS propagation, then click Check again.
- If ownership and routing pass but HTTPS is pending, wait and check again before changing working DNS.

The domain does not show the expected page
- Confirm the assigned bio page is published.
- Open the normal lstk.me handle to verify the page itself works.
- Confirm the domain status is Verified.
- Confirm the Link uses Account default rather than the explicit LinkStack option.
- If you need a different bio page, remove the current domain mapping and add it to the intended page.
LinkStack pages appear under your domain in search
LinkStack's own feature, pricing, help, trust, and sign-in pages redirect to linkstack.fyi when opened on your domain. Your published bio and Links keep using your domain. Existing search results can take time to update after search engines crawl the redirects.
Downgrades and cancellations
When Growth ends, the custom domain immediately stops serving LinkStack bio pages and Links. Every Link falls back to its permanent lstk.me URL, while its linkstack.fyi URL also remains available. LinkStack keeps the domain record so it can be restored after upgrading, subject to DNS and verification checks.
Remove the domain
- Open Settings and choose Domains.
- Click Remove beside the domain and confirm.
- Expect visitors to stop seeing the LinkStack bio page at that hostname.
- Remove or replace the LinkStack DNS records at your domain provider if the hostname will be used elsewhere.
- Test the hostname after DNS changes finish.
