So you have created a website with Shopify and now need to configure your domain name at Gandi so that it takes visitors to your website.

After having finished configuring your Shopify website for your domain, you will need to make some technical changes to your domain at Gandi. For security purposes, Gandi cannot perform these changes for you.

You will need to log into your domain name with any of the contacts (other than the billing contact) (trouble logging in?).

You now need to make a change to your DNS zone file so that your domain points at your website.

To add the CNAME record you need to first make an editable copy of your zone file (see instructions).

The entry or entries you need to add will look something like this (check your Shopify account to be sure):

www 10800 IN CNAME shop.myshopify.com.

Don't forget to add a record for the bare domain (unless you've added web forwarding):

@ 10800 IN A 23.227.38.32

Which entries you add depends on your own site's configuration.

Here is an example of a zone file for a domain (we'll use example.com) that will bring visitors to a Shopify website:

@ 10800 IN MX 50 fb.mail.gandi.net. 
@ 10800 IN MX 10 spool.mail.gandi.net. 
imap 10800 IN CNAME access.mail.gandi.net. 
smtp 10800 IN CNAME relay.mail.gandi.net. 
webmail 10800 IN CNAME agent.mail.gandi.net. 
blog 10800 IN CNAME blogs.vip.gandi.net. 
pop 10800 IN CNAME access.mail.gandi.net.
www 10800 IN CNAME shop.myshopify.com.
@ 10800 IN A 23.227.38.32
