Changing your CoreHue URL

Your CoreHue URL is the web address every public link is built on: yourname.corehue.co. Your galleries, booking page, invoices, contracts and contact forms all start with it, so pick something that reads well, like your studio name. You chose it during setup, and it's best left alone once clients have links.

Changing your URL​

  1. Go to Settings → Profile.
  2. Edit Your CoreHue URL. The .corehue.co part stays fixed.
  3. Wait for CoreHue to show Available (or Already taken, in which case try another).
  4. Save.

The rules​

  • 3 to 30 characters
  • Lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens only
  • Can't start or end with a hyphen
  • Some names are reserved
Changing it breaks links you've shared

CoreHue warns you: "Changing your URL will break any existing links you've shared." Gallery links clients have bookmarked, invoices in their inboxes and the booking link in your Instagram bio all stop working. If you do need to change it, pick a quiet time when nothing is live, and be ready to resend links.

Where you'll see it​

Your URL also appears at the top of Settings → Domains, with a copy button. If you connect a custom domain, it's labeled as your backup: "Backup URL. Always works if your custom domain has issues."

For every kind of public link and what it looks like, see Your public links and web address.

Want your own domain instead?​

On Plus and Pro you can show your pages on a domain you own, like photos.yourstudio.com, without changing your CoreHue URL at all. Your CoreHue address keeps working alongside it. See Connecting a custom domain.

Frequently asked questions​

No. Old links don't redirect. CoreHue warns that changing your CoreHue URL breaks links you've already shared, so plan to send clients the new ones.

Why does it say Already taken?​

Already taken means another CoreHue account is using that name. Try a variation, such as adding "photo" or your city.

Can I use capital letters or spaces?​

No. A CoreHue URL uses lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens only, 3 to 30 characters, for example jane-doe-photo.
