Adding a Custom Domain to GH-Pages with SSL

So a few days ago GitHub announced that SSL certificates are now supported for custom domains. I created this video based off of a request to show you guys how to get the new SSL running on a custom domain with GH-Pages. I hope you enjoy :)

I get this error for ssl

-- Certificate Request Error: Certificate provisioning will retry automatically in a short period, please be patient.


Please help.

I can only add a single A record in my DNS settings. I chose the first IP address and it works.. could that become a problem in the future?

[pandypro]

Under my domain settings there is nothing available for my DNS settings, is there any way I can fix it? I cannot transfer a domain due to it costing money

hi zach thanks for the video, what if you got a free domain name (I'm using Freenom) and it doesnt seem to have those custom resource records!
