    I know that. But I heard forummotion liked to charge me to use it.

    I already own the domain.

    Hi, do you want to redirect a URL you already own to your website? Smile

    Yes, that exactly. Is Forumotion going to charge me credits to use it though?

    And will it be able to use it in links, like, http://forum.mydomain.com/post?p=640289&mode=quote

    Hello,

    If you bought your domain from another host Forumotion won't charge.
    For links it should work as normal.

    I will give it a try when I get both my forum and domain set up. I will come back to this thread if there are any issues, until such a time I consider this:

    "Solved".
