Good morning. I'm having problem connecting my GODADDY domain to my forum. Domain: www.doucerdevivre.com Forum: http://z10.invisionfree.com/__doucerdevivre/index.php? Every time I attempt to connect them it says it's having problem connecting it to the "Points To Host Name:". Here is what I'm typing in: Enter an Alias Name: www.doucerdevivre.com. Points To Host Name: z10.invisionfree.com/__doucerdevivre TTL: 1 hour It won't accept it. What am I doing wrong? I've tried it this way also... Enter an Alias Name: www.doucerdevivre.com. Points To Host Name: z10.invisionfree.com TTL: 1 hour It accepts it, but when I try to connect it to the forum the forum says: "The domain entered is not in a valid format." or "....CNAME is invalid...." PLEASE, HELP! x) <33SARA! Edited by DVstaff, Sep 16 2008, 10:37 AM.

For the Alias Name just enter www not the full domain. Then for the Points to part, just enter z10.invisionfree.com Brian |

Thanks so much Brian! x) I did that. Now, I'm still not sure what to enter into the open box where I add a domain name (within the Domain Manger in the C Panel). I entered: doucerdevivre.com Didn't work. I entered: www Didn't work. So, again PLEASE, HELP! x) |

You'll need to create one extra CNAME record like you did above, except enter doucerdevivre.com. (With the trailing period) in the Alias box (Leave the Host name as z10.invisionfree.com). ![]() Then try adding doucerdevivre.com (Without the trailing period) in the Domain Manager in your Admin CP. |
