Hi @DMusunuru

Unfortunately, it is not possible to select your domain on e.g. blog before you have completed the process of connecting your DNS and you receive a message from HubSpot that "mha-triad" is connected.

As soon as this is completed, you can move the root domain from hs-siteXXX to the live site.

hello martin,

thanks for the quick reply, I went into the website > domain & urls > clicked on connect a domain > primary > then selected blog > then selected our primary domain (mha-traid.org) > then landed on the page in the screenshot attached > clicked on next, but after that it is not taking me the hosting setup

@DMusunuru As I understand it, unless HubSpot is hosting your main site, you'll have to use a subdomain like https://resources.mha-triad.org/ (a HubSpot resource on subdomain vs. subdirectory) If you'd rather have the subdirectory, then you'll have to host in HubSpot.
