My forum is located here. Yesterday night, I bought a GoDaddy domain called OurLatinEmpire.com; which I set to forward and mask my forum. An administrator from GoDaddy told me: "I understand you have a question about masking a forwarded domain name. You mention that the forwarded URL contiinues to show after the domain forwards. Unfortunately we cannot mask a web site that updates immediately or periodically after the forward takes place. We apologize for any inconvenience regarding this issue." I was wondering if there was any other way where I could mask my forum, without the mask being broken. If not, then, is there any way I can get a Back-up of my forum so I can make a PHP based website and add the back up forum to it? |

http://docs.zetaboards.com/domains/godaddy The above will set you on the right track. You could also create a .htaccess file in the main public directory of your hosting provider which redirects the page but does not change the URL in the address bar. If you need help with this, PM me, and I will give you the code. It uses Apache MOD_REWRITE. Good luck! -David |

Thank you for your support. I have managed to succesfully follow the steps required to establish a CNAME. It is working alright. |
