Connecting an existing domain

Connecting a domain that is registered with a third-party registrar

How to connect a domain if you already have one connected

If you registered a domain through Wfolio, you will see the "Change domain" button. Click on it and connect any free .wfolio.pro domain first. If you connected a domain that was registered with another domain registrar, press the "Disable domain" button.

After this is done, click on the "I already have a domain" link and connect your domain.

Then configure the domain at your registrar. This can be done in two ways.

Option №1. Specify Wfolio servers as DNS servers

Change the ns servers of your domain (there should only be two ns servers left):

NS-server

Value

NS1

dns1.wfolio.com

NS2

dns2.wfolio.com

Option №2. Edit (or add) in the DNS editor A-records

This option can be used if the registrar does not allow changing DNS servers or if your domain uses mail or other services you need.

Type

Name (Host) *

Value

TTL

А

@

159.69.249.27

3600

www

159.69.249.27

* — some registrars require you to specify your domain name instead of the «@» symbol, for example example.com. If you cannot enter either the @ symbol or the domain name in this field, leave the field blank.

After changing DNS servers, it can take up to 2 days to update. Your site will start opening with domain name only after changing DNS servers.

If you have any problems with connecting a domain — text us in the support chat on the site. We will help you.
