Fancy domains do not work when setting up Developer Profile.

Summary

Try to use any fancy TLD as your main web site link in the profile page when setting up a developer account. You can’t. It’s incorrectly checking the domain from a list of what it thinks are valid TLDs, not actually checking to see if the website exists. I can put a “.com” style site in there but not “.productions”, in my case.

Steps to Reproduce

I tried to enter https://mooncast.productions/ in the website field on https://dev.epicgames.com/portal/mooncast-productions/organization/profile and when I enter that, it tells me the website link is not valid.

Expected Result

I should be able to provide a valid web site link. If the profile settings page can fetch it, it’s valid.

Observed Result

“The website link is not valid” popup when trying to enter my website.

Additional Notes

I can’t tell where to assign this, the support system is too spread out to be useful, and the AI bot sent me 3 different places all incorrect. I’m a DEVELOPER trying to set up my profile.
