Staging Domain created after every domain is added.

Hello Team,

I am seeing that after each and every domain is added through the panel, one staging website gets automatically created. Is this normal behavior?

Adrien

prasad0889 No. This should not happen. How are you adding the domain? Normally you create a Website/App, and if you check the staging site box, then it will be on the staging domain.

@Adrien When a customer website is setup for the first time either via Upmind or manually, there is an automatic staging domain getting created with a staging website.

prasad0889 I didn't realize that. I will test again and confirm you here. Thanks for sharing.

If you use the "preview" functionality, this will create a subdomain of the staging domain. This isn't a staging website, it's a way to test the live website prior to pointing the DNS.

If this isn't what you mean, can you send a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Yes as @Adam pointed out, this is a staging domain and not a staging website which helps customers see the website until their original domain name is mapped and live. Its a good feature to have a temporary URL.

@Adam, Ohh, if its just a preview, then its fine. I thought that each time, if this creates a staging website, it will be difficult to remove all of these.
