@ShetlandJ Thanks for your reply :). The gist has been updated.
Also, if anyone uses a Namecheap domain and a Namecheap Private Email setup, you need to go to Netlify and add these to your DNS settings:
Record type: MX
Priority: 10
Value: mx1.privateemail.com
Record type: MX
Priority: 10
Value: mx2.privateemail.com
Record type: TXT
Value: v=spf1 include:spf.privateemail.com ~all
I had to google about to find this stuff, so may be worth adding to the gist too.
Thanks!
Hi @ShetlandJ thanks for sharing 👍
Hello, I set up four sites w Netlify on same day and got four separate sets of Custom DNS urls (p01, p03, p06, p07). I found out they had to match (in NameCheap) whatever Netlify generated for the specific site.
Also, thanks for the PrivateEmail DNS settings. Those setting need to be made in Netlify's DNS panel (not NameCheap like I assumed):
- From Team page in Netlify, pick Domains
- On Domains see DNS records
If you are looking to setup a custom domain at netlify then you need to first add the nameservers to your provider here is a complete tutorial on how to configure domain on netlify.
Thanks! The nameservers may have changed, for anyone reading this in Dec 2020.
I had to use
dns1.p03.nsone.net
etc
