Edit a subdomain
Now that you understand what a subdomain is, you can edit a non-forwarded subdomain that points to an IP address. You can also manually forward or mask your domain or subdomain.
Note: If your domain is registered at another company, see the Domains registered at another company section below for instructions.
- Log in to your My Products page.
- If you aren't automatically directed there, make sure to select the My Products tab.
- Next to the domain you want to use, click DNS.
- On the DNS Management page, next to the A record for the subdomain you want to edit, click (the pencil icon).
- Edit any of the following fields:
- Name: Enter the subdomain you want to use. Type @ to map the record directly to your domain name, including the www.
- Value: Enter the IP address you want the subdomain to point to.
- TTL: Select how long the server should cache the information.
- Click Save.
Note: Updating the IP address where a subdomain resolves does not update the subdomain's forwarding.
