Mapping your domain is an important part of vassarspaces.net; it reinforces the idea that you don’t necessarily need to host all your own applications. You should, however, be mindful of making your web presences part of a domain you control. If you would like to map a subdomain and have not yet created it, use\u00a0this tutorial on creating subdomains<\/a>\u00a0before proceeding. To map your domain, or a subdomain, to Tumblr, use these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in and navigate to your cPanel. Click the\u00a0Search box<\/strong>\u00a0at the top, right-hand corner and type \u201cDNS<\/abbr>\u201d (without the quotes). As you type, the cPanel page will begin to narrow down results.<\/li>\n
  2. Find and click on\u00a0Zone Editor<\/strong>\u00a0to continue.<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    Find the domain, or subdomain, you want to map to Tumblr in the list of\u00a0Zone File Records<\/strong>. Click\u00a0Manage<\/strong>\u00a0next to the proper domain.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \n
    Leave the Name, and TTL fields set to their defaults. Update the\u00a0Type<\/strong>\u00a0drop-down menu to\u00a0CNAME<\/strong>, and the\u00a0Address<\/strong>\u00a0field to\u00a0domains.tumblr.com<\/strong>. Click\u00a0Edit Record<\/strong>\u00a0when you are done.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  5. \n
    Visit the Tumblr website, and login with your Tumblr username and password.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  6. \n
    After logging in, click the Tumblr\u00a0Settings<\/strong>\u00a0icon.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  7. \n
    For the Tumblog you’d like to use under the\u00a0Username<\/strong>\u00a0click the pencil icon to edit these settings.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  8. \n
    Check the\u00a0Use a custom domain<\/strong>\u00a0checkbox. Type the name of the domain or subdomain you want to map to Tumblr into the box, then click\u00a0Test your domain<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  9. \n
    If your domain mapping was successful, you’ll see a message that your domain is now pointing to Tumblr. Click the\u00a0Save<\/strong>\u00a0button before leaving the page. Keep in mind that it may take up to 72 hours for your domain or subdomain to correctly point all visitors to the correct location.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
