Accessing DNS Records
From the sidebar, go to Domains → All Domains. Click on the domain you want to manage, then select the DNS tab.
You will see a table listing all current DNS records with these columns:

Editing and Deleting Records
To edit a record, click the Edit button in the Actions column. The same form appears with the current values pre-filled. Make your changes and click Update.
To delete a record, click the Delete button. A confirmation dialog will appear before the record is permanently removed.

- Name — Enter the record name. Use
@for the root domain, or a prefix likemailorblogfor subdomains. - Content — Enter the value. For A records, this is an IP address. For CNAME, a hostname. For TXT, a text string (e.g., SPF or verification records).
- TTL — Time to live in seconds. Default is typically 3600 (1 hour).

Notes
- DNS changes may take up to 24-48 hours to propagate globally, though most changes are visible within minutes.
- If your domain uses Cloudflare, manage DNS records through the Cloudflare tab instead — changes sync automatically.
- Default A records for the domain and www subdomain are created automatically when you add a domain.
