I want to move / host my domain name spaarvarkens.info, now hosted by another host (Mijndomein) to websiteX5. How do I manage that? Moving from the old host is clear, but how and where should it go? It's an empty domain name, no website connected to it yet. Kind regards, Gert

Hello Gert
As of now, WebSite X5 does not allow registering a domain with us. This specific step is currently being developed to be available in the future, but as of now, only the webspace can be purchased from us.
If you need your domain to point to our webspace instead of a different one, you need to go into your WebHosting panel in the Help Center profile and follow the instructions there:
You will be asked for your domain name, and you will be provided information to use on your domain provider to link the webspace from WebSite X5 and their domain
In the future, it will be possible to move the domain to us entirely as requested but you, but unfortunately, this is not yet possible
I remain available here in case you have further questions

OK, clear. Was too good to be true. But I look forward to future plans with great anticipation!
Next question: I am (I assume) getting permission from my current domain-name-host to host the associated website elsewhere. This host does not support the database at the shops that I have in Website X5 (I have 2).
The question is: do I also receive the necessary database details per domain name (= website) with your hosting, such as db server, db name, possibility to enter db description, and of course a username and password?
If yes, then the current extension of the package 4.4 certainly has added value for me.
Kind regards, Gert
"The question is: do I also receive the necessary database details per domain name (= website) with your hosting, such as db server, db name, possibility to enter db description, and of course a username and password?" - yes, the program itself creates and configures the database. You don't need to know the database connection parameters.
Hello guys,
I have my domain and I would like to use it. I contact interserver.net and they told me to contact Web X5. Can somebody help me,please? (I have name server 01 and name server 02 - thats all I did receive after contacting interserver.net ) Configurate the domain does not work either...
In this video (from 00:03:35), I showed how you can get the settings for your domain.Perhaps this will be useful to you.
