       IP Address for Sub Domain
       By: mtee82 Date: December 21, 2019, 11:21 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Hi,
       I have an existing website at url www.pangyao.hk (hosted on
       Heroku).  Currently, my forum url is pangyaohk.createaforum.com,
       but I would like to create a new subdomain and change it to
       forum.pangyao.hk.
       My hosting provider has advised that I can create a new
       subdomain through the control panel, but said that I require the
       IP address of my forum in order to create it.  Are you able to
       provide this please?  They advised me not to change the
       nameservers as it may disrupt my main pangyao.hk site (which I
       don't want).
       Thanks

       Hi,
       I've now created a new A record as per attached, for subdomain
       forum.pangyao.hk.  Can you please advise how I can now update my
       existing domain pangyaohk.createaforum.com to this one?
       Thanks

       Thanks!  A couple of further questions:
       [list]
       [li]Is it possible to set up as secure https?  Currently it is
       only http which I think may put people off from signing up as it
       shows as not secure[/li]
       [li]Is it possible to set up links for both forum.pangyao.hk
       AND www.forum.pangyao.hk?  Do I need to set up a separate record
       with my hosting provider for this and are you able to link it if
       I do?[/li]
       [/list]

       Hi,
       Further to my additional questions below, after further checking
       there seems to be a problem with the new url linking.  Although
       forum.pangyao.hk successfully brings me to the home page, when I
       click on any of the boards, nothing happens (i.e. it just stays
       on the same page and doesn't link to the board).  Can you please
       check and advise?
       Thanks

       Https possible but it starts at $50 a url for us to order and
       setup ssl
       I wouldn't do both forum and www that could cause issues

       OK thanks...  If I did want to arrange that, how long does it
       take and how should I arrange?  Do I just let you know on here?

       For SSL click under forum upgrades. And there is a couple
       options for SSL in terms of length.
