How to Set Up Custom Domain Aliasing

Click on the user menu on the right side of the site header to reveal a drop-down menu.

Select Manage from the drop-down menu.

Under Configuration, select the General sub-section.

In the Custom Domain section, select Edit.

Click and check the box next for Use a Custom Domain.

Add a CNAME record or enter the URL that you want to use if you have already added a CNAME record.

Some examples include: guides.yoursitename.com or support.yoursitename.com.

Click Save.

This process varies depending on your hosting services provider.

NOTE: You need to login to your hosting services account portal to add a CNAME. This change cannot be completed from your Dozuki site.

Select the Domain for which you want to create a new CNAME Record.

Enter the custom URL that you want to use for your Dozuki site in the Name field. This is the same URL that you entered in the custom domain box on your Dozuki site.

You may need to include a Period at the end of your custom URL. For example, we entered guides.example.com. Notice the period at the end of the URL.

The final step is to enter your Dozuki site URL. This is the URL you created when you first signed up for Dozuki. Our Dozuki URL is example.Dozuki.com

Click Add CNAME Record

Now wait. After making the change, DNS changes may take 24 hours to propagate to servers all over the world. However, the change usually takes effect in less than an hour.
