How to change DNS zones (MX, CNAME, and A records)

Shared:

With cPanel 11.25, you now have access to make some of these changes. Note: This feature will take effect only if you are using GoMedia's name servers.

  • In cPanel, you have an icon under "Domains" called "Simple DNS Zone Editor". This feature allows you to create and edit A and CNAME records.
  • You can also create and edit your MX records with the icon under "Mail" called "MX Entry".
  • You can even customize your SPF records using the icon under "Mail" called "Email Authentication".
Note that cPanel refuses to display any record with a comment at the end. It tells the user that there are no MX records and it is defaulting to the main A record, but this is not true. It is legitimate to have comments at the end of your records, but cPanel will not understand.
