I am confused about the CNAME settings on my DNS server settings and on PL. I want three separate sites on my Pro account to be registered under PL.
I have gone into Bluehost DNS settings and added CNAME pointing cms to cms.pagelime.com for 3 sites (kaysvillebible.org, davismasterchorale.org, and richfieldbible.org).
How do I set the custom CNAME on PL to work for each site of the three. Currently it is set to cms.kaysvillebible.org. Is that correct, and what about the other two sites
The business account would allow you to do this. With the professional account you can have only one CNAME intended to be branded by YOUR company, like cms.eanticev-design.com or something of that sort.
Emil,
Sorry to be cheap, but I am not good enough to quit my day job and do web design for a living. Since I provide web services out of pocket, the business plan is beyond my means but would be great if I were a pro. My provider, Bluehost, allows unlimited subfolders each of which could host one of these domains. Is it ethical and logistically possible on a Pro account to have the CNAME point to cms.markjulie.com and then manage multiple users/permissions per site that actually resides in a subfolder of markjulie.com? If not, I understand.
You CAN manage 50 sites, but you can only have ONE login domain on the pro account.
So people would log-in at cms.markjulie.com, but they could still have their own site, you don't need to subfolders.
Just sign up for a pro trial and check it out.
Thanks for the clarification. I already have a Pro account, so I will reconfigure.
If I understand the process correctly, the CNAME on my web host under DNS settings should point 'cms' to 'cms.pagelime.com'.
The custom URL in PageLime should be 'cms.markjulie.com'.
On the Joe Workman PageLime login stacks HUD, should the domain on each site point to cms.markjulie.com?
Yes to all of those!
