How to connect your custom domain name to Selar
There are two ways to connect your custom domain:
Via setting your A Tag in your DNS settings
Via setting your CNAME in your DNS settings
If you're planning to map your root website domain name: I.e johndoe.com, you'd need to set the A record of your Domain's DNS to point to Selar's IP address.
IP Addresses you can map your DNS to:
- 52.210.244.99
- 52.208.53.181
- 54.246.101.205
PS: You can use either of the IPs or use all when setting the DNS.
However, if you're planning to map your domain's sub domain name, e.g abc.johndoe.com, then you'd have to set the CNAME of that preferred subdomain to map to Selar's host
Host route: poweryourstore.selar.co

NB: If you use cloudflare to manage your DNS and you set the DNS using cloudflare, be sure to turn off the Cloudflare proxy status to DNS only for the DNS.
