Yes, you can absolutely use a subdomain, like blog.example.com, as a custom domain for your Ghost CMS website hosted on Magic Pages.

The process to set it up is similar to normal custom domains.

  1. Once you upgraded to a paid plan, log in to your Ghost admin at example.mymagic.page/ghost.
  2. Click on "Customer Portal" in the left side bar.
  3. Navigate to the "Domain" tab and click on "Edit domain".
  4. Enter your subdomain, set the DNS records that are displayed, and click on "Activate domain"

You're all done! Enjoy using your subdomain on your Ghost publication!
