How to Set Up Your Custom Domain with Job Boardly
Setting up a custom domain for your Job Boardly job board allows you to have a personalized web address. Follow these steps to complete the setup:
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Log into Your DNS Management Provider
First, log in to your DNS management provider. This could be Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, ClouDNS, or any other DNS management provider you use.
2. Access Your Domain's DNS Settings
Find and select the domain you want to set up. For this example, we'll use yourdomain.com
3. Remove Existing A Records
Before adding new records, remove any existing A records for your domain to avoid conflicts.
4. Add New DNS Records
Add the following DNS records to your configuration:
TYPE | HOST | VALUE |
A | @ | 75.2.96.173 |
A | @ | 99.83.186.151 |
CNAME | www | in.saascustomdomains.com |
Note for Namecheap Users: Ensure the host is set to "@" for the A records.
5. Disable Proxying (Cloudflare Users Only)
If you are using Cloudflare, please disable proxying for your DNS records. They should be set to "DNS only" (disable the orange cloud icon).
Additional Information
Propagation Time: It may take a few minutes for the DNS records to be updated. In some cases, it can take up to 24-48 hours for changes to fully propagate.
SSL Certificates: Job Boardly automatically manages SSL certificates for custom domains, ensuring your job board is secure.
