You've posted this in our "ZetaBoards" support section, but your board is "InvisionFree". I've moved it to the appropriate section. ![]() Jonathan Hi there. Can you take a look in your domain's control panel, and see if you can find a page allowing you to add or edit CNAME or A-records? When you find this page (You might need to contact your domain host if you can't find it), take a screenshot of it, and paste it in here. ![]() Jonathan Edited by Jonathan, Jul 5 2009, 08:10 PM.

No problem. In the Add an CNAME Record section, enter @ in the "Name" box, and z3.invisionfree.com in the CNAME box. Try waiting a little while, and adding the domain into your Domain Manager. ![]() Jonathan |

Remove www.streetstyled.co.uk. from the start of the Name. That should work - @ doesn't seem to work in all cases. Jonathan |
