We currently have two options for the URL for your branded DMPonline instance.
1. Either we can provide you with '.dmponline-mt.dcc.ac.uk', or,
2. you can specify your own URL in a domain you control
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. In the case of us providing the URL we can take care of all technical matters relating to the certificate
This is done independently of working on the branding/content of your instance, as we will provide you with '.dmpdev.dcc.ac.uk’ link for this purpose. Finalise your branding on this development server, where it is easier to make changes. We will be in touch with you about the go live date once we have everything in place.
2. If choosing the second option, there are a couple of steps to set this up. These steps will most likely involve technical staff at your institution liaising with ours.
a. First, we will need you to put a CNAME record in from '' e.g. '' to 'dmponline-lb.dcc.ac.uk'.
b. Once this mapping is in-place, we will be able to add you to our SSL Certificate.
c. We can then put that certificate, at which point navigating to '' e.g. '' will show a dcc branded DMPonline instance, with no need to click through a security warning.
d. At that point, you can set a date on which you'd like the site to go live, and we can begin redirecting your users to your custom site when they login to DMPonline.
