Setting Up a Godaddy Domain

My Co-Admin is going to be purchasing a domain for our board and in anticipation, I read the wiki and used a friend's godaddy account to go through the motions of setting it up.

However, that wiki page on godaddy is outdated and I can't figure out what to do after I paste the server IP into the "Points to IP" box. How do I save that information? What other information do I need to point it to my board?

It would be great if someone could give me step by step instructions from start to finish on how to set it up and get it running.

Thanks,
GAK

Go Irish!

Can you take a screenshot of the page you're updating? I'll have to go see about updating the Godaddy documentation as well.

Here's the screenshot:

It has the s4 server IP pasted in there, but how do I get it to point to my board/what do I do from here?

Once you've done that, we do the rest.

Once the record is pointing to our server, simply go to your Domain Manager in your ZB Admin CP, and add the domain you're trying to use. This effectively links the domain which is already pointing to our server to your board specifically. :)
