When I transfer a domain from Godaddy to Weebly is the old website getting disabled? The website hosted on Godday is working and functional. I just hope it stays open until I managed to updgrade it on Weebly.

Hey @vasilepopovici. Thanks for posting!

 

Sometimes the DNS completely resets, but other times the old records stay in place. For that reason, it may be better to keep the domain pointed at GoDaddy until the new site is ready. Then you can connect the domain to the Square site before you initiate the transfer. Itโ€™s also important to note that we cannot guarantee that the DNS will not reset before a transfer, and that transfers can take 7-10 days to complete. You wonโ€™t be able to make any changes to the DNS while it is pending transfer which is why it is important to update the DNS first.

 

Hope this helps a bit!
