Welcome to my PBwiki!

 

This wiki demonstrates the domain mapping feature. You can get to this wiki via two addresses:

 

The basic address:

http://domaindemo.pbwiki.com/

   

That shows the same wiki as:

 

I set up my domain mapping on the admin page, entering "wiki.tdemo.net" in the domain field.

 

I used Yahoo! Small Business to register and set up the wiki.tdemo.net domain. Here's what my 'Advanced DNS Settings' page looks like - the relevant parts are highlighted in yellow.

 

 

 

It's a good idea to use a CNAME record (pointing to pbwiki.com) rather than A record (pointing to a numeric IP address) - we will change server addresses over time as we grow and using an A record could leave your mapped domain pointing into the void when that happens. As a caveat, this means you won't be able to add an MX record, so you won't be able to get mail for your custom-mapped domain.
