I have made my forum, and bought a domain.

Postby clarkey1984 on Sat Jun 20, 2009 11:14 pm

I don't really know how to do the next part, as i am very new to all this. :oops:

My forum URL is barredplayers.yap365.com

My domain name is www.barredplayers.co.uk

Could somebody tell me how to change my board URL to my new domain name please.

I read that i need to be able to point an IP address to something, but i really am clueless, how do i do that?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Can I use my own domain name?
A: Yes, you can use your own domain if you do not want to use our free subdomain names. To setup your domain, please signup a forum with our subdomains first; then let us know your domain name. You need set A record of your domain as: 72.9.150.116.

Thanks, i managed to set my A record to that IP pretty soon after i made my first post, (finally figured it out), and now it's working with my domain URL! Thanks again!

My forum has disappeared!!!!


I know it hasnt really been used alot for a little while but should it have just gone, im getting this error....


We are sorry the page or forum you are trying to access does not exist.

The reasons could be:
The URL is not correct;
The forum does not exist;
The forum is offline
If you believe you typed the correct URL, please report his error to us at our support forum at:
http://support.yap365.com



The URL is correct, the forum should exist, and there is no reason that the forum should be offline, i havent taken it off anyway.

Any ideas anyone??

Many thanks in advance!

inactive forums (i.e., no posts) will be deleted automatically after 60 days (from the last activity; our tos states 30 days; but actually it is 60 days). Your forum probably was deleted due to this.
