  2. Select your domain: In the dashboard, select the root domain you want to add a CNAME record to.

  3. Go to DNS management: Click "DNS" in the top menu to open the records management page.

Step 2. Add a CNAME record

    ​

  2. Set the record type:

    • Type: Choose CNAME.

  3. Set the subdomain (Name):

    • Name: Enter the subdomain name you want to use, for example: events or activity.

  4. Set the target address (Target):

    • Target: Enter Feversocial's target domain: proxy.fevercdn.com.

    ⚠️ Note: When adding the CNAME record, set the proxy status to "DNS only" — do not turn on the proxy (the orange cloud icon).

Step 3. Save your settings and next steps

  1. Save the record: Click "Save" to finish adding the CNAME record.

  2. Confirm it was added: Check that your new CNAME record now appears in the DNS records list.
