# Configure status page basics
> Learn how to configure branding, custom domains, display settings, and editing or deletion for a status page
This guide is for status pages that have already been created or migrated. It covers basic properties and display settings.
If you do not have a status page yet, first read [Get started with Flashduty Status Page](/en/on-call/statuspage/get-started) and complete creation or migration.
***
## Basic information
You can edit the status page name, URL slug, and basic description at any time. The name is usually your company, product, or service name so visitors can understand what the page represents.
### URL slug
The URL slug is the unique path segment in the status page URL. You can change it after creation, but slugs must be unique within the same account for the same page type.
The system automatically converts names to a URL-safe format: lowercase, with non-alphanumeric characters replaced by hyphens. You can also specify the slug manually.
Changing the URL slug invalidates the previous access URL. For public status pages, plan the slug before launch to avoid breaking external links later.

## Branding settings
You can customize the status page branding to match your corporate identity.
### Logos and icons
| Setting | Description |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Logo** | Brand logo displayed at the top of the status page |
| **Dark logo** | Brand logo displayed in dark mode. Falls back to the main logo if not set |
| **Logo link** | Target URL when users click the logo |
| **Favicon** | Small icon displayed in the browser tab |
### Page content
| Setting | Description |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Page header** | Custom text displayed at the top of the status page |
| **Page footer** | Custom text displayed at the bottom of the status page |
| **Custom links** | Additional navigation links on the status page for quick access to related resources |
| **Contact info** | Contact information for getting help; supports email addresses or website URLs |
***
## Custom domain
By default, status pages are accessed through a Flashduty-provided subdomain. To use your own domain, such as `status.yourcompany.com`, configure a custom domain.
In your DNS provider, add a CNAME record for your target domain pointing to the Flashduty-provided status page address.
Enter your custom domain in the status page settings. The system verifies domain uniqueness, and the same domain cannot be used by multiple status pages.
Custom domains must be globally unique across the platform. If the domain is already in use by another status page, the system will reject the configuration.
After configuration, Flashduty automatically issues, renews, and publishes HTTPS certificates for your custom domain — no manual certificate upload or management is needed. Before the certificate can be issued, the following DNS verification records must be in place. Click **Check configuration** in the status page settings to view the verification status of each record:
| Record | Type | Description |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Access entry record** | CNAME | Points your domain to a Flashduty-managed access entry: the mainland China access entry is `cn.statuspage.flashduty.com`, and the international access entry is `statuspage.flashduty.com`. If your DNS provider supports GeoDNS, configure both China and international records for the same domain; otherwise, choose one entry |
| **Certificate management record** (dns-01 delegation) | CNAME | A dns-01 delegation record under the `_acme-challenge` prefix that delegates ACME certificate validation to Flashcat-managed DNS and proves you control the domain. Use **Check configuration** to see the exact record name and target value |
Once both records pass verification, the system issues the certificate and automatically publishes it to the edge nodes, and your custom domain is served over HTTPS.
**Switch from the legacy entry with no HTTPS interruption**
If your custom domain still points to the legacy compatibility entry `statuspage.flashcat.cloud`, the system pre-issues and publishes the managed certificate as long as the certificate management record (dns-01 delegation) passes verification. When you later switch DNS from the legacy entry to a managed access entry, both edges already hold a valid certificate, so the cutover has no HTTPS gap.
**Access entry is recognized along the full CNAME chain**
The system verifies the access entry along the full CNAME chain: you may point at a managed entry through intermediate records of your own, and the domain is recognized as long as any hop in the chain matches a managed entry. Once recognized, edge nodes serve HTTPS for the domain on demand.

## Display settings
### Event history view
The status page supports two modes for displaying event history:
| View mode | Description |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Calendar view** | Displays historical events in a calendar layout for reviewing service status on specific days |
| **List view** | Lists historical events chronologically for quickly browsing recent events |
Both the calendar view and the list view let visitors page back through history with **no 90-day limit** — they can browse all the way to the **earliest event recorded** on the status page. The **90-day / 50-item** window applies **only to the [RSS/Atom feeds](/en/on-call/statuspage/subscriptions)** and does not affect browsing history on the web page.
### Uptime display
You can control how component uptime statistics are displayed:
| Display mode | Description |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Chart and percentage** | Shows both an uptime trend chart and percentage values |
| **Chart only** | Shows only the uptime trend chart |
| **None** | Hides uptime statistics entirely |

## Editing and deletion
You can edit the status page name, URL slug, branding settings, and display configuration at any time.
Deleting a status page permanently removes its associated data. This action cannot be undone.
