By default, your member site comes with a MemBirds domain. For example: "yourbusiness.membirds.com". If you prefer to use your own domain name (eg. members.yourbusiness.com) you can set this up this within a few clicks.
To do this, Go to "Settings" from your MemBirds admin dashboard and then under "Advanced" to "Domain names".
As you can see in the image below, the domain you chose when creating your MemBirds account is set as "default".
If you want to link your own domain, click on "Add domain" at the top left of the screen. You will now be asked to enter your domain name. Important: Enter the desired subdomain here (eg. members.yourbusiness.com) and not the main domain (eg: yourbusiness.nl).
After you have entered your domain name, you will see a message on the right with the instructions below.
You can now add the "Value" as a CNAME record to the DNS for the desired subdomain (eg. members.yourbusiness.com) at your domain host (eg GoDaddy, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform or Bluehost). If you are not familiar with this yourself, please get in touch with the person who manages and/or built your website.
Below you will find instructions from the 4 largest hosting parties on how to set this up:
These instructions are also stated on the website or in a helpdesk of most (smaller) hosting providers. If you can't figure this out, please contact your hosting provider's customer service.
After you have added the DNS records, click on "I have added the DNS records, refresh". Finally, you need to set the newly added domain as "default". You do this by simply checking the option that appears on the right and clicking Save.
Please note: After you have added the CNAME Record, it can take up to 72 hours, depending on your hosting provider, before the changes are visible and your member site is reachable on the new domain.
