I previously had my domain justwiselove.com connected to a different GitHub account and repository, where it was live through GitHub Pages. I have since rebuilt the website in a different repository under this GitHub account. However, when I try to connect the domain to the new repository in GitHub Pages, I keep getting the following error:

"You must verify your domain www.justwiselove.com before being able to use it. Check out https://docs.github.com/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site/verifying-your-custom-domain-for-github-pages for more information."

I’ve tried to resolve the issue but haven’t been able to. Could you please help me understand what I need to do to fix this? For context, I also switched my domain registrar from GoDaddy to Cloudflare and deleted all DNS records except the NS records.

When I go to add the custom domain I get the error: "You must verify your domain www.justwiselove.com before being able to use it. Check out https://docs.github.com/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site/verifying-your-custom-domain-for-github-pages for more information." It doesn't give me the TXT value just that error.

Hi @glenniii-dev, thanks for bringing this up!

I noticed this discussion is a duplicate of GitHub Pages Domain Verification Failing After Moving to New Repo, so I’ll go ahead and close this thread to keep the conversation in one place.

For future reference, please open just one discussion per topic so we can keep all the context and replies together.

Thanks for understanding!
