Pointing an existing domain name to business catalyst.

Hi there,
I have an existing site called www.design180.co.nz. But I have designed a new site. I want to replace the old site with the new one Ive redesigned Adobe in muse. The hosting company has the domain name, I will need them to point the domain name to the business catalyst, where the new site will be hosted. Ive 5 free accounts so I will use one of them. This is where I am stuck... Does he point to "ns1.worldsecuresystems.com (54.236.190.129)" - primary DNS server.
At present the site is set up as a trial in Muse design18002.businesscatalyst.com
After he points to the site can i save the muse site as www.design180.co.nz

Hi there, I am guessing your reading the documentaiton. That is correct, if your pointing all traffic to your BC site you need to use those NS records.
What you then do is go into your site admin, into site settings and manage domains. You need to set up your domain in there.
Once you do that, it can take up to 24 hours for a .com, but for a .co.nz it should take about an hour or so tops to propergate. ISP's cache dns different so some may take longer, especially if someone is viewing outside NZ.

  • How to transfer exisitng domain names to business catalyst?

    What are the requirements or what is the proccess to transfer exisitng domain names to business catalyst?
    Your input is much appreciated.

    Business Catalyst does not have a domain hosting capabilities, so you can not transfer domains to BC.
    If you would like to point a domain to BC though you either point the A-record or NS records to your BC site:

  • Using own domain name on Business Catalyst / Muse

    I have a 'complete plan' subscription to CC and I believe 5 free sites with Business Catalyst.
    From checking this forum and FAQ it appears I should be able to link a domain name I currently own to a BC site so my URL drops the businesscatalyst.com element of the name. I have changed teh NS to ns1.worldsecuresystems.com  (and ns2 / ns3) and the next stage is to go to Site Settings and enter the doman name.
    My problem is where do I find the menu Site Settings as I can not see it within Muse?

    Hi Peter
    The settings to add the domain is not with Muse but in Business Catalyst domain settings.
    You would need to publish the site first to Business Catalyst and then make the site live.
    After performing the steps you can add the domain.

  • Migrating domain name to Business Catalyst

    After playing with Muse for a while I am looking to publish my site shortly. My current hosting package is up in January so would like to move over to Business Catalyst rather than renew that if possible.
    Current hosting comes with free email addresses associated with the domain name, one of which is printed on my business card. Is there a way to keep and migrate this or do I need to lose it and reprint cards with an updated address?

    You have a couple options. Since you used Muse I will guess you are thinking on using your free hosting.
    The free hosting is very basic and does not have email support. You will still need to keep your domain registered with where ever it is now. Adobe doesn't host domain names.
    So what you need to do after you go live is to:
    Either upgrade it to a paid site and you can set the DNS at your current registerar to ns1.worldsecuresystems.com and ns2.worldsecuresystems.com
    or
    Just direct the A record in your domain settings where you have your domain to 192.150.2.140 and leave the MX record (email) with your current host.

  • Having trouble setting new domain name in business catalyst

    Hello,
    I'm having problems setting up my site to go live. Here's what I've done so far:
    1) built the site and pushed it live
    2) upgraded the site
    3) set up a GoDaddy domain name
    4) set up the servers on GoDaddy
    5) set up the associate account info on BC
    And then.... nothing.
    I've then deleted the domain and tried to repeat the process, in case I missed something, but now I can't set up a new domaine and keep getting the error "Domain already exists. Please delete all records associated with this domain". What records? What does this even mean?
    Can someone please walk me through the steps to get this site live?
    Thanks!
    Darin

    Hi Aish,
    I'm still having no luck with the site. I've triple-checked and everything is correct on the GoDaddy end. I'm attaching a screenshot of with BC portal, so you can see where I'm at. I somehow ended up with duplicate domains and I have no idea which one to delete. Also, I can't seem to enter anything for the A records, C name records, etc. Is there anything at all that support can do to get this thing up and running? It's been close to a week since I upgraded the site. Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Darin

  • How to publcish new Muse Site with existing domain name

    We've created a new site in MUSE and we are ready for it to go live via BC. can we just use the same domain name of our existing site that is hosted by others? Will it replace it? Or do I have to cancel my existing hosting service first?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    You may create site using Muse, have the Muse project published to Business catalyst.Once done, have the site launched as either free site you get or as paid one based on you requirements.
    Once the site is launched, you may have the domain added to the site via site settings > site domains > new domain.
    When you add the domain you have two options :
    1. Use our DNS service
    2. Use External DNS service
    Based of your requirement , you will need to add the domain and have the domain redirected to Business catalyst where the site is now hosted.
    As far your existing site is concerned, you may want to keep it until the muse site is ready and published to business catalyst. However, once you are ready and domain is redirected , you may cancel your subscription with third party hosting service .

  • Pointing my new domain name too my .mac homepage

    Hi, please can someone tell me how to point my new domain name to my .mac account? I usually have to change DNS settings but I can't find them anywhere on this site.
    Thanks

    You may already figured this out, but I had the same problem and later learned that Apple will not provide a DNS number. I had to pay my domain host to forward my domain (aka "domain forwarding") so that someone typing in my domain is automatically forwarded to my Apple homepage. Even then, viewers will see the very long iWeb url in the domain/url field, and so to avoid that, you might consider paying a few more bucks to get "domain masking", which replaces the long winded iWeb urls with your domain. The only problem with that is no matter what page of your site the visiter is on it always says your domain (www.xxxxxx.com) in the domain/url field. Its a compromise, but at least you have the satisfaction of using your personalized domain name and the ease of use of Apple's iWeb system.

  • Publish to .mac with an existing domain name

    I was wondering if anyone has published to .mac with and existing domain and kept it. I have had my business under this domain name for 15 years and do not want to change it at this time.
    Thanks

    I believe the issue is solved as the domain now points correctly to BC servers , it was probably a propagation delay.

  • RSS Subscribe Button point to old domain name?

    Hey,
    A .mac site I am help maintain is doing something strange with the RSS feeds.
    http://web.mac.com/calvarymissions/CCMA/home.html
    There are currently 2 blog style pages on there and both of the RSS feeds point to an old domain name address rather than the .mac address.
    I've looked through the posts here, but haven't been able to find a solution. I've checked on another computer using iweb and this problem doesn't occur, so I figure it's a setting on that editing machine?
    Any idea's?

    Make sure that you have nothing set in the Personal Domain part of the .Mac account settings.
