Is it possible to have GoDaddy subdomain link to Shopify while connect the main domain to Webstudio?

At a glance

The community member is trying to connect their client's GoDaddy domain to Webstudio while setting up a subdomain with Shopify. Shopify support team said this is not possible. Other community members suggested using a reverse proxy, such as Cloudflare, as a potential solution, but one member noted that Cloudflare does not support the .ca domain. There is no explicitly marked answer in the comments.

Hi Currently one of my clients bought their domain with GoDaddy and we are trying to help them setup their e-commerce shop with shopify. The thing is since we are designing the main pages (Home, About, Contact page) with Webstudio, is it possible to connect the main domain of this client from GoDaddy to Webstudio while having subdomain setup with Shopify? We’re thinking the subdomain at Shopify would be shop.siteexample.com. Talked to Shopify support team today and they said no.

Woahh timing!

As far as I get it, that you can fix using a reverse proxy!

Just made a post about it as well, but with slightly different reason behind it.

I saw a video of Finsweet explaining reverse proxies, but still found it quite challenging.

I'm using cloudflare myself.
I think this guide should do it, will need to try that.

@Ronald from 360Creators thanks for your advice, however, the issue is the .ca domain is currently not supported within Cloudflare. Any alternative?
