Solved: Accounts for Customers

pinulk · ‎07-20-2016

I have an education/ pro plan. Now I have created a site for a friend who wants to set up a web shop and web site.

Now the site naturally appears under my account. But I want to change the new site to a business plan and also set her as the administrator.

How do i do that?

After the site is upgraded to Business you'll definitely be able to use your .fi domain name with the site. You'll need to make some DNS changes to the domain to do so, though:

Hey @pinulk!

Our Business upgrade is not available for education accounts, so in order to upgrade the site to Business you'd need to do one of two things:

1. Has us convert the account back to a standard account, which would also affect other sites in your account as well as mean you'd lose any education features you're using.

2. Move the site to a brand new Weebly account so you can upgrade the site separately in a standard account.

As for inviting your friend, you can do that using our collaboration features:

Thanks for the answer.

How do I move the site to a new account, which I can then upgrade.

I also have a Finnish .fi domain, that I want to connect to the site. Is that possible?

So, just to be clear.

I want to move the site I created to a new account
I want all of the content to be moved
I want to be able to upgrade the new site to a business plan with full e-commerce funtionality
I want to use the Finnish .fi domain
