    Solved Domain name - no longer allowed unless you have an upgraded package?

    Post by Ontario October 29th 2019, 9:57 pm

    Hello, I am wondering if I am correct in my assumptions. I have a domain name that is directed to my forum. It has always worked. But in the last few days the forum will only load (for myself and other forum members) with the .forumotion.com ending. I went into Admin functions and noticed that now it appears if you have a free forum you must pay to have your own domain name registered to the forum (even if it's paid for through a third party - I use GoDaddy).

    Am I correct here?

    Hello,
    To answer your question, yes. You will need at least the Advanced Package to be able to use an external domain name with your Forumotion forum. To find out more about our packages you can find that information below.
