   @whitequark I am certifiably an idiot.

   I carefully rendered my static website *to the wrong folder*, so of course it could not be found. Now all is well, and sub1.swiss-soccer.net is alive and kicking.

   Thank you for your patience and advice over the last couple of days.

   I have a website in several sections that is currently on github pages, and now I think I have the opportunity to make each section its own repo and have each one be displayed on a subdomain, with the content on codeberg and using grebedoc.dev, and it looks as if I should be able to make it work. Thank you for making this possible.

   Now, before I close all those tabs, I need to write down what ended up working...

   @whitequark I wrote up some (rather detailed) notes for myself so that it will work again next time. It seemed obligatory to put them at http://sub1.swiss-soccer.net, so I did.

   ETA: I would like to write something for grebedoc.dev that covers the subdomain part (and builds off what was written for "I own a domain").

   @whitequark also, in the webhook, "test delivery" now gives me a 200 response.

   and... (holding my breath): sub1.swiss-soccer.net displays....

   404 not found.

   Ah well, at least I'm closer. Let me see what's going on.

   (When this is all done, I want to write up what worked for me, and if I may, share it with you and anyone else in the same boat.)

   @whitequark progress, but still confusion.

   Did the additional TXT record as described. Set up the webhook on the repo that's going to be published to the subdomain, as described. My DNS stuff now has two TXT records, one for the domain and one for the subdomain. It also has an A record and an AAAA record with the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for grebedoc.dev.

   It seems to me that the TXT things are for authorization, not to send anyone looking for sub1.swiss-soccer.net to the right place. For that I seem to need a CNAME record. The host is going to be sub1, but for the value I have no idea what to put, except that it seems to be something to do with grebedoc.dev.

   (Setting the CNAME value to grebedoc.dev enables me to ping and dig sub1.swiss-soccer.net, but not to access sub1.swiss-soccer.net. When I try, I get This site can’t provide a secure connection: sub1.swiss-soccer.net sent an invalid response.

   Can someone help me feel less lost?

   @nxskok if you have e.g. repo codeberg.org/nxs/sub1 and you want to publish it to sub1.swiss-soccer.net, define DNS auth for the subdomain (you can set _git-pages-repository.sub1.swiss-soccer.net even if you use CNAME since it is a subdomain) and set up a webhook pushing to http://sub1.swiss-soccer.net
