    Solved New domain Issue

    Post by inallsorts Mon 20 Feb 2012, 22:35

    Hey guys,

    I've just joined here (and just created a forum), and like to say what a wonderful community Indeed.

    Anyhow, a simple, yet somewhat confusing question. I've migrated a custom domain to my forum successfully (CName), however can't get the "ARecord" going due to forumotion's IP address. I've pinged forumotion via the command prompt and did a "Whois" lookup for the IP and obtained It. But when entered Into the browser's address bar, a message of "Website declined to show the page" pops up Instead of forumotions homepage.

    Put simply, what IP address do I add to my host's DNS records? Any help Is truly appreciated.

    Hello !

    I understand what you want to do. However, this is not how it works in the forumotions forums because of the IP round-robin Wink

    Henceforth, you will not be able to do that. The only operation allowed is the cname as reported in the tutorial.

    Thank you for your understanding
