How can I connect a subdomain (ad.kimberleyplastic.com.au) to a Webflow hosted site while keeping the main domain (kimberleyplastic.com.au) pointed elsewhere? I have already set up the subdomain with the Webflow A-Records.

To connect a subdomain (ad.kimberleyplastic.com.au) to a Webflow hosted site while keeping the main domain (kimberleyplastic.com.au) pointed elsewhere, you can follow these steps:

1. Set up A-Records in your DNS provider:
- Log in to your DNS provider's website or control panel.
- Look for the DNS management section or a similar name.
- Create an A-Record for the subdomain "ad" with the target value being the Webflow IP address. You can get the IP address from your Webflow hosting settings. It should be something like 34.193.69.252.

2. Set up the subdomain in Webflow:
- Log in to your Webflow account and go to your project's dashboard.
- Select the project you want to connect the subdomain to.
- Go to the project settings by clicking on the gear icon in the left sidebar.
- In the Project Settings tab, scroll down to the Hosting section and click on "Add Custom Domain".
- Enter the subdomain "ad.kimberleyplastic.com.au" and click on "Add Domain".

3. Verify the subdomain in Webflow:
- Webflow will generate a DNS verification record for your subdomain.
- Copy the verification record provided by Webflow (usually a TXT record).
- Go back to your DNS provider's website and add the verification record as a new TXT record for the subdomain "ad.kimberleyplastic.com.au".

4. Publish the changes:
- After adding the verification record, go back to Webflow and click on "Verify".
- Webflow will check if the verification record has been added correctly. Once verified, the subdomain will be connected to your Webflow hosted site.
- Make sure to publish your project in Webflow for the changes to take effect.

Once the above steps are completed, the subdomain "ad.kimberleyplastic.com.au" will be connected to your Webflow hosted site, while the main domain "kimberleyplastic.com.au" can remain pointed elsewhere. It's important to note that DNS changes can take some time to propagate, so it may take a while for the subdomain to function as expected.
