Easy Domain Redirection

Note: Please ensure that your "Use Your On Domain Name" premium service and DNS settings are set up properly and working before you attempt to use this tool. It will not work unless your domain name is working already.

Introduction

If you've purchased the Use Your Own Domain premium service, there's a simple way that you can make sure that visitors to your network always reach it though your domain rather than via its ning.com address. This was so popular that we've made it a hidden feature on your social network as of version 3.3. If your social network is running up to date code, please use the easy domain redirection tool. If you're running on an older version of the source code please see instructions on manual domain name redirection.

Easy Domain Redirection Instructions

To set up domain redirection the easy way, just follow these steps

1. Log into your social network as the Network Creator
2. Visit http://examplenetwork.ning.com/admin/index/editDomainRedirection where you substitute examplenetwork with the .ning.com subdomain of your social network.
   
3. From the dropdown select the domain name that you would like your members to see.
4. Click on the 'Save' button

Yep! It's that easy. Your members will now automaticaly be redirected to the domain name that you selected in the drop down. If you'd ever like to disable this function, just return to this page and select the .ning.com subdomain from the list.
