Wordpress domain settings

Hi,

My domain is www.anserq.com

If I have pointed the cname and A record of @ on godaddy to 000webhost, how can I make sure, that I can use anserq.com or www.anserq.com for my wordpress site?
I don’t want it to use anserq.000webhostapp.com
Please let me know.

Can someone do this for me please?

Basically, I want to use anserq.com as the main domain,
I don’t want to use anserq.000webhostapp.com
So how can I do this? PLease let me know, all of the instructions.
I will update the DNS at godaddy
and make changes in wordpress.

You can use nameservers instead
ns01.000webhost.com
ns02.000webhost.com

If you want to point it then use
@ your000webhostappurl.com
www your000webhostappurl.com

After that go to your 000webhost dashboard and click on manage website>>set web address and choose your option Pointing/parking.

Then you have to update it in WordPress also.
Click on manage website>>manage database>>phpmyadmin

Click on wp-option and update site url and home url.

Thank you for your reply.

I don’t want to use nameservers, as all the DNS is already setup on godaddy.
Also, I tried to add the CNAME @ but it does not let me, it says it already exists.

Hi,

I pointed the nameservers to your ones for my domain, anserq.com

Now, what is the password for the anserq.com wordpress db?
I didn’t save it.
Can you please make the change for me, how you said:

Then you have to update it in WordPress also.
Click on manage website>>manage database>>phpmyadmin

Click on wp-option and update site url and home url.

Please do this for me, I don’t have the password.

You can do that from your cPanel>Manage databases

I made the changes in phpmyadmin.
Does it have to be just http:// or https://?

Also, can I add a records and manage the dns for my website? It’s really important.

Thanks for your help!

Also, it’s going to anserq.000webhostapp.com still, if I go to anserq.com sometimes. how can I fix this?

Hi sir,

I’ve done all this, and still when I go to anserq.com it’s going to the subdomain of anserq.000webhostapp.com
Please can you fix this for me?

Also, can I control the DNS of anserq.com for free, or not?

Also the linked website still shows as anserq.000webhostapp.com in the cpanel

It will still show the 000webhost app in the cPanel.
However, for the domain redirection issue, it works fine here, try flushing your DNS

So is it still going to be redirected?
I wanted to use anserq.com.

Also sir, can I add dns records to my website? I need to do that.

The home menu link still goes to the anserq.000webhostapp.com subdomain.
Is that normal?

If you followed the update WP URL then you might have plugins that need changed?

I don’t think I have any plugins that might be causing that, right?

If you changed both URL lines in WP to your new URL and the old URL still loads on certain things then you need to change the config for a plugin or search your database for the old URL.

Or try

I tried this and there is still the problem with the home link.
The only link that is doing that is the home link.
Others are all fine.

Also guys, how can I add DNS records to my domain?

Via your domain registrar :smiley:
