createaforum, Ipage, and Gsuite
« on: March 30, 2017, 03:56:50 pm »
I was very excited when I found createaform.  It just seemed different than the rest.  Thus far set up has gone smoothly except for one completely aggravating fact.


I signed up for create a form, changed my name servers on ipage and the URL is verified the12thstrike.com.


I signed up for gsuite and google apps for work to run my email.  I changed inserted the gsuite mx records in ipage, and usually that does the trick.  It isn't this time, they want me to insert the gsuite mx records here.  I've never had issues doing things such as this. The email I created @the12thstrike.com will not work. I cannot find a place anywhere in the control panel or the forum options to change the mx records.  Please help!  I wont work without Gsuite so I'm hoping you can help solve this issue and rapidly.


I would appreciate any help I may get as soon as possible.


Thank you
Ej






Id greatly appreciate it.

Don't change the nameservers in this case.

Int this case create a dns A record and point it to the IP of 64.79.105.131

Hello, I added the A record, and returned the name servers to the way they were.  Now the email works, but the url does not lead to the forum?  I also noticed under the DNS records there was an 12thframe.com ip address and then there was the separate a record I added for create a form.  Should I delete the 12thframe.com one? 


SO Email good, but the12thframe.com does not lead to the forum.  How should I procede?


Thanks

Yes delete   Should I delete the 12thframe.com one? 

There should only be one ip to the forum.

I just noticed the A record IP address you posted and made that change.  but it seems you are posting as I am.  But I now think I have done everything you recommended.

The email works, A record is as you recommended, should it take a few hours before the page works again?  At the moment it is not functioning, that is the12thstrike.com does not lead to the forum and even if I login under the createaforum address that I had before I added my domain it still does not work.  Is there any point to adding a cname as well?  Or will this work over the next few hours?


thanks gain

That is incorrect


I just went through a crazy process of taking a screen shot of my DNS, then trying to upload it, only to find I needed to create a link.  It's not looking as though the link is working.  The A record is correct, it is the one you updated.  Sorry do not mean to be difficult, but i made that update as soon as i saw you said you made a mistake.  The A record is your updated one.

only to find in the end that I could attach it normally and not by link.  So you can see in that picture it's the updated A record you sent.  Yet I am still having no luck getting back to the forum.


I dont mean to be difficult, I appreciate your help

When I edited it and removed createaform to leave it blank and hit save, it automatically switched to the12thframe.com.  I'm assuming either that's correct or some other character needs to be there.  thanks again for all the time.
