How to connect a custom domain name to your job board

Want to connect your brand new domain name to your job board? Here's how to do it.

For customers connecting a subdomain name
(example: jobs.yourdomain.com)

Go to your domain registrar's website, and edit your domain's DNS configuration as follows:

  • Make sure there are no CNAME records on the subdomain host you are trying to connect (in this example, jobs is the host) or delete any existing records for that host
  • Add a new CNAME record with the subdomain as your "host/name" value (in this example: jobs) with the following value: app.niceboard.co
  • Save your DNS configuration.
  • Go back to your Niceboard admin panel, under "Domain" and click the button "DNS records set".
  • Your domain is now being configured and will be connected to your job board within 24-48 hours.

For customers connecting a full domain name
(example: yourdomain.com)

Go to your domain registrar's website, and edit your domain's DNS configuration as follows:

  • Add one A record with name "@" and value "173.255.233.147"
  • Add another A record with name "www" and value "173.255.233.147"
  • Remove any previous A records on either "www" or "@" as they will conflict with your new records
  • Make sure you do not have any "redirects" in place. Niceboard's platform will take care of the redirects for you, for improved SEO.
  • Save your DNS configuration.
  • Go back to your Niceboard admin panel, under "Domain" and click the button "DNS records set".
  • Your domain is now being configured
