I was going to try out Wordpress and bought a domain name via them to use but found i didnt like it and came back to Smugmug. Anyways I was wondering if anyone knows how to point that domain name to my site on here? I want to use as it suites my site more so that the current one I have.

Thanks!

Hi,

Here are the settings for that:

http://help.smugmug.com/customer/por...ostname-domain

If you need any help getting the settings input in your domain registrar/webhost, just let us know at:

http://help.smugmug.com/

and we'll get it going changed for you.

Best Regards,

I couldnt figure it out so I emailed support. How long does it usually take for support to get back to me on it?

Sounds good.

Our response time is typically within one hour, often sooner. :)
