Adding or Updating CNAME Records in Your Wix Account

A Canonical Name (CNAME) record is a type of Domain Name System (DNS) record that maps an alias name to a true or canonical domain name. You can add or update your CNAME records from the Domains page of your Wix account.

Important:

If your domain is connected to Wix via pointing, you must add or update CNAME records with your domain host (not Wix).

To add or update a CNAME record:

Go to Domains in your Wix account.
Click the Domain Actions icon
next to the relevant domain and select Manage DNS Records.
