I asked everywhere around even with my hosting but they seem to not care about it The address i want to point is forums.sponge-magazine.com through jumba (australian company) and the address for the invisionfree is z6.invisionfree.com/spongemagazine This is the screenshot of the DNS management: I made the subdomain already in cpanel btw. Thank you! Edited by phurieda, Sep 14 2009, 09:58 PM.

The domain should point to z6.invisionfree.com with a CNAME record. Maybe the hosting im with isn't working with invisionfree?

Cos I only setup the subdomain through the cpanel, and I did make an FTP account as well for that subdomain.. I can show you how the main page looks like (the actual my domains setting): From there I went to "DNS Management" and this is the cpanel: Edited by phurieda, Sep 16 2009, 08:27 PM.

Can you contact your server admin and ask them to point a CNAME record for "forums" to z6.invisionfree.com? Cpanel itself shouldn't let you do that. Jonathan
