For churches

Web addresses

Every hosted gallery has a missionarylane.org address, which you choose when you create the church, such as gracechurch.missionarylane.org. It always keeps working. On a paid plan you can also connect your church's own address, such as missions.yourchurch.org.

Connect your own address #

Admins and owners do this in Settings → Web address.

  1. Type the address only, without https://. A part of your website, like missions.yourchurch.org, is easiest.
  2. Press Connect. A table shows one or more DNS records.
  3. Add those records where your church's domain is managed, for example GoDaddy, Squarespace, Cloudflare or Google Domains. Your website company can help.
  4. Come back and press Check again. It can take up to a day to work.
  5. Once it says connected, press Make main address if you want it to be the address you share.
  • Addresses waiting for their DNS records show Waiting for DNS.
  • The main address is the one shown in Share it, with the QR code and the embed code.
  • Remove disconnects your own address. Your missionarylane.org address keeps working.
  • Connecting your own address needs a paid plan; it isn't available during the trial.

The admin's address #

Hosted churches sign in at app.missionarylane.org, whatever their gallery's address.

Self-hosted galleries #

A self-hosted gallery's address is the one the desktop app published it to, and the admin is at that address followed by /admin.html. To move the gallery to another host, open the desktop app and choose Change hosting on the gallery's card. See the desktop app.
