Hi there. I have done a search and posted little questions here and there and I still haven't found the answer to what should be easy to answer for those of you who've been around a while. To make my question easy to understand, I have created screen shots and I am providing all the relevant information about my forum and domain name:
My forumer.com forum:
highdesertforum.12.forumer.com
My recently purchased domain from godaddy.com:
highdeserthub.com
I have set "highdeserthub.com" with godaddy to forward "mask" to the forumer url and that works fine. The Admin panel area of "Domain setup" on forumer does not accept the domain name I just purchased. See pics below.
Here you can see I typed the domain I own into the box as asked.
Here you can see my new domain, as forwarded by godaddy.com. worked to bring the user to my forumer site, but the forumer site does not adjust the users cookies when topics are read. I am wondering if this is because the domain name has not been officially changed in Forumer.com
Above is the error message I get when I try to update to the new domain.
Did I throw my money away buying from godaddy? This hardly seems fair on forumer's part if they dis-allow domains bought elsewhere.
I'm a little frusdtated, if anyone can help me out, I would sure appreciate it. All my users are seeing red now and they cant mark all topics as read anymore if they are there through a forwarded address.
