Domain is pending verification

I’m encountering a prolonged issue with verifying the domain africanplains.org for use in my Vercel project.

The domain belongs to someone else, and they’ve added the required TXT record with the details provided by Vercel:

  • Type: TXT
  • Name: _vercel
  • Value: vc-domain-verify=africanplains.org,0d2cc53b3d3dfdcdaf4b

Despite this, the domain remains in a “pending verification” state, and I am unable to link it to my project.

Is there a way to check if the TXT record has been properly detected or force Vercel to re-check the verification process? If additional steps are required, I’d appreciate any guidance to expedite the process.

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Hey @wambui-n. I see a TXT record for _vercel.africanplains.org, but the value doesn’t match the one you provided above. Please double check that the correct value is used. Then, domain verification will succeed. :slightly_smiling_face:
