QUOTE(Sheep319 @ May 1 2007, 07:08 PM) uh, noobie question here. how do I change the domain name entirely? like for example. my blog link shows sheep319.com but after clicking on a link, it shows sheep319.freepgs.com (which is where i'm hosting my blog) Unfortunately, you can't do that unless you use paid hosting. Thanks. |

QUOTE(Sheep319 @ May 2 2007, 12:16 AM) paid hosting as in i pay for the hosting? i'm hosting my blog on freepgs.com, its not a blog site, more like a hosting service. is it still impossible? Yes, you will need to pay for the hosting. For your information, be it free blog hosting, free web hosting, free forum hosting... etc, you get only yourname.provider.com, which is the subdomain of the provider. Your hosting account does not have any DNS zones and thus, you cannot add your domain to the entries to reflect it on the visitors' browsers. Thanks. |

QUOTE(Sheep319 @ May 2 2007, 06:07 PM) ah, now thats detailed explanation  But it states here that it has access to DNS records. Does that count? :/ EDIT: ahah! Finally got it! Thanks michaelfoo! Glad that everything is working for you. Enjoy! |
