Setting up Wix and other website programs with your own domain at Polar55

Would you like to connect your domain at Polar55 with platforms like Wix or other external systems (For Squarespace, see here), you can do this by modifying your DNS settings. This guide assumes that you still want to receive emails through polar55.

1: Log in to your control panel and select cPanel.
2: Find the section 'DNS' and click 'Manage.'
3: Modify the A record containing your domain name. Here, change the IP address from our server to the IP address provided by the third-party system provider (e.g., Wix).

Name TTL Type Record Actions
yourdomain.com. 3600 A 11.112.23.222 ✎ Edit Delete

Save your changes and wait for up to 24 hours for the DNS changes to propagate. Your domain should now point to Wix, for example, while still receiving emails.

Please note that the DNS page contains several records, which we have hidden in the above image. We have highlighted only the relevant ones for your setup. You should leave the others unchanged.
