Hi, Even after reading dozen of postings here I'm still completely lost on how to do this :$ . Would like to set up the Invision Board so that it shows up as being on my domain when people click on link to it from www.EagleRiderUdon.com/index.htm My board: http://z3.invisionfree.com/EagleRidersUdon/ My Web host: Webhostingpad.com My Domain: EagleRiderUdon.com Domain registered with Webhostingpad.com CNAME = ? / A = ? How do I do this. Please explain so that even I can understand it. |

Hi there. Domains can be understandably confusing. In your domains control panel, do you see anywhere that let's you edit cname or a-records? If so, take a screenshot of this page and paste it in here. ![]() Jonathan |

Jonathan, I only got cPanel X access. Obviously that doesn't give access to these things. I tried nslookup which gave following results: ![]() ![]() Contacted my Web host. Here is the reply from them:
That I did by taking a screen shot of you guide for setting it up in WHM and mailed it to them together with my board details (z3.invisionfree.com) + informed name of a subdomain. That resulted in following reply:
All I have to do now is to wait 48 hours and then add my subdomain in the Domain Manager. Is that correct? Cheers, ThaiJan Can tell everybody that this works. I added my subdomain in the Domain Manager after 24 hours, choose it as Primary, and the board now shows following URL: www.subdomain.mydomain.com Thanks Jonathan for putting me on the right track. Cheers, ThaiJan Edited by ThaiJan, May 14 2009, 02:08 PM.
