Is there a video tutorial or someone available to instruct me on how to change the A records in cpanel to use Webflow for a custom domain?
Yes, there are video tutorials and resources available to guide you on how to change the A records in cPanel to use Webflow for a custom domain. Webflow provides detailed documentation and video tutorials on their website to help you through the process.
Here is a step-by-step guide to changing the A records in cPanel to use Webflow for a custom domain:
Log in to your cPanel account. This can usually be accessed through your web hosting provider's website.
Once logged in, locate the "Domains" section or the "Zone Editor" icon. The terminology may slightly differ depending on your hosting provider.
In the "Zone Editor" or "DNS Zone Editor" interface, find the domain for which you want to change the A records.
Look for the existing A record associated with your domain. It may be labeled as "@" or "www" or both.
Edit the existing A record by clicking on its corresponding "Edit" button. If you don't have any existing A records, navigate to the "Add A Record" section.
Change the existing IP address in the "Address" or "Points To" field to the Webflow IP address. You can find this IP address by going to your Webflow project settings and selecting "Custom Domains" or by checking Webflow's documentation.
Save the changes by clicking on the "Save Record" or similar button. The A record will now be updated to point to Webflow.
You can repeat steps 4-7 for any other A records associated with your domain.
It's important to note that DNS propagation can take some time, so it may take a while for your changes to take effect. Be patient and allow up to 24 hours for the changes to fully propagate.
