assigning existing domain to weebly website in editor

[Quartel]

Hi, I'm having trouble forwarding my (externally purchased) domain www.cornequartel.nl to my existing weebly website www.cornequartel.com

The domain host has updated the A records to point to weebly, but I can't find it in the weebly editor or how to assign it....

Any help? Much appreciated

Hey @Quartel!  If you want to use both domains with your site, have your Registrar forward your .nl domain to your .com domain instead.  A domain forward is a little different and doesn't require setting up A records like pointing a domain would.

Ah, Ok I'll try that, thanks!

Hi, I asked them but they cannot do it for me.

Previously I asked them (as suggested in the weebly help topic) to point domain's A Records from my old .nl domain to Weebly's IP address, which they did.

So, is a follow up on that possible via Weebly? To point my old www.cornequartel.nl domain to my new weebly website www.cornequartel.com? I dont know how to fix this.

Any help much appreciated.

Quartel, you could only have one domain directly connected, the other would have to be a forwarding domain. So, you want one domain pointing its A-records to your Weebly IP address and have your Weebly settings have that assigned as the site address. The other domain would just be a forward to the first, directly connected domain.
