=== About Wildcard Domains === For accounts sharing the same domain, you can set up a '''wildcard domain'''. This allows you to create a single CNAME for all accounts. To set up a wildcard domain, you can use the following steps, also illustrated for GoDaddy: # Log into your '''GoDaddy''' account. # Click on '''Domains'''. # Select '''Manage DNS'''. # Click '''Add''' and choose '''CNAME''' from the dropdown list. # Fill in the fields displayed: * '''Host''': Set the host name to the wildcard ("*"). * '''Points to''': Input the URL you are directing the wildcard to, which should be managed-cname-fallback.activehosted.com. * '''TTL''': Again set this to 43200 (in seconds) or 12 (in hours). # Click '''Save'''. If you need to fix an existing CNAME, the same steps apply. Editing the record will allow you to adjust the settings as necessary.
