In this tutorial we cover how to link a domain registered with 123-Reg to your Fabrik website.

123-Reg Domain Instructions

Go to the 123-Reg website and click the "Control Panel" link at the top of the page. Once logged in, select your domain name and click "Manage":

On the domain management page, under "Advanced domain settings" click "Manage DNS”:

Click the "Advanced DNS" tab to view the DNS records for your domain. If this is a newly registered domain you will likely see the following default records in place (these just point to the 123-Reg holding page):

If this is an existing domain you may have a few other records in there. In any case, the ones we are interested in are:

DNS Entry    Type    Example URL
@            A       yourdomain.com
www          A       www.yourdomain.com

You need to change both of these records to point to Fabrik's IP address 23.101.60.214. Next to each of the above records click the pencil icon and update the "Destination/Target" with the new address:

Once done, you should see the following updated records:

The final step is to link your domain in the Fabrik dashboard.

The Internet is a big place!

DNS records are replicated all over the internet so any changes you make can often take up to 48 hours to propagate. If after a few hours your domain still goes to the old location, please be patient and wait a bit longer. If you want absolute confirmation that you've set everything up correctly you can use Dig Web Interface.
