Organization-level custom domain not working

[aaronpk]

I tried creating a custom domain for my organization to use with GitHub Pages. I wasn't able to find the actual documentation on how to do this, but a previous discussion thread led me to the conclusion that I should create a repo in my org called organization, and set up that repo with a custom domain. That part is working fine.

https://drafts.oauth.net

I would expect now that the other repos using GitHub Pages would be accessible under this custom domain:

• Repo: https://github.com/oauth-wg/oauth-v2-1
• Original URL: https://oauth-wg.github.io/oauth-v2-1/
• Expected URL: https://drafts.oauth.net/oauth-v2-1/

However this doesn't seem to be working. What am I doing wrong?

Your organization repository should be named: <org name>.github.io. We talk about that here: https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/about-github-pages#types-of-github-pages-sites.

So in your case, rename https://github.com/oauth-wg/organization to oauth-wg.github.io.

Thank you, that worked!

May I suggest adding a link to that from the section I had been reading under "Configure a custom domain".

There seems to be some missing docs to connect the dots here. Now that I know how it all works it makes sense.

Making a note for that!
