    Very clear. The only thing that is not quite clear is whether the 4 records on a new domain that was bought yesterday should be deleted or not. I have no a records just 2 TXT 1 CNAME and 1 ALIAS. Judging from the video I keep them and delete add the name A and AAAA records from my web host

      Yeah, it's a bit weird they didn't do the use case where the domain was freshly registered. When I try to add an A record, I get an error about the CNAME.

    Hi. In your ip address example, you used the ending of the ip address as .2 for the record you left HOST blank for and .3 for the www record you. Are those two ip addresses or was it a typo

    • @PorkbunDomains
      @PorkbunDomains  7 месяцев назад

      Hi, the IP addresses used here are just as an example. You'll want to use the IP addresses provided by your hosting provider rather than what is shown here.

      Let's say you want to host (Computing power) your website on another Hoster which is cheaper, they will give you an ip address to connect to their computer (which will process all the traffic which comes to the site), you need to put that ip address on that file that is shown on the video. This is useful if you want to have full access to the VPS (Server/computer) where the website is hosted.

      For A records? Typically just a few minutes. Sounds like you may have a cached result. Try clearing your browser history and restarting your modem/router. If your'e still having issues I invite you to email support@porkbun.com so they can have a look as well.
