Hi everybody!

I have a question I hope somebody can give me some help with. We have built a site on Force.com, and have registered a domain name on Godaddy, how do I setup the name servers so the visiting public only sees http://www.oursite.com, instead of http://www.oursite.force.com?

So far we've followed directions we found that say to to create a site, domain and custom URL in Salesforce. Then on Godaddy, we created a CNAME record which points to "oursite.our18characterOrgId.live.siteforce.com", which does work if you were to type in www.oursite.com.

The problem is, this does not work if somebody doesn't put the www in front of the url.

From my understanding of how this needs to work (please correct me if I'm wrong), on Godaddy I'd have to create an A record on Godaddy that ponits to salesforce, which I'm not able to do because an A record requires an IP address, not a domain.


Any feedback, will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you :-)

Hi Everybody!

I have a question I hope somebody can give me some help with. If we build a site on Force.com, and have registered a domain name on Godaddy, how do I setup the name servers to the visiting public only sees http://www.oursite.com, instead of http://www.oursite.force.com?

So far we've followed directions we found that says to to create a site, domain and custom URL in Salesforce. Then on Godaddy, we created a CNAME record which points to "ourdomain.our18characterOrgId.live.siteforce.com", which does work if you were to type in www.mysite.com.

The problem is, that this only works as a forward, because we still see http://www.oursite.force.com in the browser address bar, instead of just http://www.oursite.com.

From my understanding of how this needs to work (please correct me if I'm wrong), Force.com would have to be the domain registrar in order for us to achieve the desired results.

Is it  possible to transfer our domain to Force.com, or is there some other way to achieve the results we're looking for?

Any feedback, will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you :-)
