    Solved How to change a domain name?

    Post by Lady Draconian December 23rd 2011, 5:06 pm

    My forum is undergoing a name change, and as such need to change our domain.
    We have a customised domain name, from forumotion.
    On the admin panel I see no possible way to change it. Confused Can someone direct me to where, or tell me how I can change it?

    You help would be much appreciated.
    Thankyou.

    You can delete the current domain name & then buy a new one.

    Though how do you delete the current custom domain?

    No, there isn't.
    The only options I see are ones to redirect, which is obviously not it. Haha.

    You can make a request for deletion of domain name by making a request via Pm to me.

    It's not yet deleted the custom domain, but I guess I should leave it time to process through the system.
