Pointing your domains to a gh-pages branch requires three steps.
Add the Github IPs as A records on Namecheap.
185.199.108.153
185.199.109.153
185.199.110.153
185.199.111.153
Add your Github domain as the CNAME alias on Namecheap. your_username.github.io. (mind the extra period!)
Add a CNAME with your new domain name in your repository. lowercase and nothing else
You will find what you need to know at these links:
https://blog.github.com/2018-05-01-github-pages-custom-domains-https/
In there is a link here, but will need these IPs

Hi everybody,
First of all, thanks to y'a;ll for the valuable info :)
Quick question, may someone can think of what I may be doing wrong:
I've followed all the steps to get my repo: https://github.com/BibleFarm/cali to resolve to the custom domain calioviedo.com
It worked right away (within minutes), so that was cool.
Please see image attached.
Thanks!
Alex
@BibleFarm -- it looks like you got your subdomain www.calioviedo.com to direct to the apex domain calioviedo.com
What did you do?
This is not correct anymore. Instead of
192.30.252.153and192.30.252.154, the IPs should be185.199.108.153,185.199.109.153,185.199.110.153and185.199.111.153.
How you know that?? where is the link? to me it seems that github is only supporting now CNAME records... because they provide the HTTPS SSL.

These should work! If not delete your CNAME for an hour and add again.
Updated IP addresses in the original post to reflect the latest recommendations from GitHub ✅
What if I have an app like username.github.io/myapp
Will setting the CNAME to username.github.io/myapp work?
@ppalone No, it won't work.
I tried using name cheap for the DNS and the custom domain name but I get a white screen with only the title of my website.
