Hi my board is at http://z13.invisionfree.com/mini_bull_terrier/index.php I have a domain from one.com which I would like to use with a sub domain forum.

I do not undersatnd the CNAME bit, do I just point to http://z13.invisionfree.com or http://z13.invisionfree.com/mini_bull_terrier/index.php

also on the actual ACP do I type in the full domain address including the www.forum. bit first.

Sorry if this is a silly question but sometimes I am a bit silly :arr:

This question appears to be about InvisionFree, not ZetaBoards. It's now been moved to the appropriate InvisionFree support section. Thank you.

When setting up a CNAME record, you need to use z13.invisionfree.com as the host name your record is pointing to. You would use forums as your "Alias".

This might not make much sense if it's not obvious in the control panel your domain provider has given you. If it's not, take a screenshot of your domain control panel on the one.com website and paste it here. Try to take your screenshot of the CNAME records page, if you can find it. :)
