hello to all i need some help if i get the Premium Package can i get the Custom domain name with it ? or do u have to pay more for the Custom domain name ? dont the Custom domain name come with the Premium Package ?

Hello,

After purchasing either the advanced package or premium package, you must purchase the domain name separately, with an additional 1200 credits.

For more information please see:
https://help.forumotion.com/t155627-forumotion-packages
https://help.forumotion.com/t10579-custom-your-domain-name

The reason for this is because the domain name, once registered has it's own expiration date (a year), regardless of the package's expiration date.

sorry about that put in this in the wrong section. I need some help I have just got 2000 credits how do I spend them i want the Premium Package and a Custom domain name.

just read the links Brandon_g posted above

sadly 2000 credits is not enough credits to get a package and your domain name.
you will need 3600 credits / year for your package, or 6000 credits / year for the
Then you will need:
You need 1200 credits just for the domain name then you need.

you must at least buy the Advanced package then buy your domain name after

So you will need a total of 4800 credits to get both of them.

thanks for get in back to me. for my Premium Package I will be paying for that Monthly I added Disabling ads for members and guests it works out at 760 credits a month. and for my Custom domain name it is 1200 credits I have 2000 credits so it works out at 1960 credits. I just went and got the credits I did not orderd the Premium Package so I have not done it right have i ?.

You must get a yearly package to get the domain name you can not get the domain name on the monthly package.

 This was stopped after members was paying for one month then asking for the money back for the monthly package or stopping the payments the next month then getting the one year domain name. 

To stop this we made a change to stop members getting the domain name on a monthly package deal.

Also you need to understand that the monthly option is only through a PayPal account, not forum's credits.

thanks for get in back to me. so for the Premium package I need 6000 credits I all so added Disabling ads for members and guests that is 1660 credits. and for my Custom domain name I will need 1200 credits so I will need 8860 credits is that right and that is for 1 year so I will need 9000 Credits

It should say how many credits you will need for everything you want in the admin panel. The amount of credits depends on a variety of factors, including forum activity, whether you currently have any of the paid features already, etc. How many credits it will cost you on your forum will be available in the admin panel by going to ACP-->Misc--->Forumotion Packages .

ok thanks for all your help. I have one more thing to say if I get my own domain name can I yse it for my site ? and pay Monthly for my Premium Package ? or do u have to get the Premium Package for 1 year to do it ? or cant u get your own domain name to yse ?

You can pay monthly and still get the domain name, but you would still need to pay the 1200 credits for the domain name and if you ever cancel the monthly package plan while the domain name is still valid, the re direct will stop until a valid package is re added again.
