If you are a HostPapa Managed WordPress customer with a GoDaddy domain, you need to point your domain to HostPapa. Just follow these steps:
- Log in to your HostPapa Dashboard.
- Click on My WordPress.
- Select the name of the website you would like to manage.
- Scroll down to Site Information and locate your site’s CDN URL (e.g. kj87os0y28.xxxxx.site):
- Log in to your GoDaddy account.
- Navigate to the DNS Management for the domain you want to point to your Managed WordPress service.
- Locate the A record for your APEX domain. Note: This is either @ or your domain.
- Click the pencil icon to the far right of this record to edit it.
- Locate the field Points to.
- Update this field with the following IP address: 104.18.211.89
- Click Save.
- Locate the www record.
- If the www record exists, edit the www record to point to your CDN URL (e.g., kj87os0y28.xxxxx.site)
- If the www does not exist, please create the record as follows:
Type: CNAME
Name: www
Host: Your CDN URL (kj87os0y28.xxxxx.site)
That’s it! Your domain is now pointing to your Managed WordPress platform. Please note that it will take some time for the DNS to update.
