I’d like to preview a deployment of my Dwebsite before updating the ENS record on the Ethereum mainnet. I’m always interested to hear alternatives, but I think using a testnet is the right way to do this. Can Brave be configured to resolve ENS names from testnets? I’ve poked around in the browser and IPFS companion settings without success.

Hi I sent you a message. I have the same situtation and I am doing a simple extension for it , I can send you
I found a simpler solution: use relative URIs instead of absolute URIs for resource links on the site. With this change, resources load correctly and hyperlinks work as expected.
For my use case, I simply needed to preview the Dwebsite (published to IPFS) with stylesheets and images working properly. To do this I:
- Set my site generator (Hugo) to use a base URL of “/” so all hyperlinks started with “/”
- Regenerated all pages
- Added the entire website to IPFS with the command
ipfs add -r <path_to_local_root>.
After that, I could visit http://dweb.link/ipfs/{cid} to be redirected to my local IPFS node and preview the site with working links and resources.
