In order to ensure the domain name is correctly aliased to ClubRunner, the domain administrator will need to update some of the DNS records through the domain registrar. These changes are outlined in our Domain Aliasing with ClubRunner article.

Please note that Network Solutions does not currently support domain level AAAA records. While the AAAA records are recommended, they are not required and the domain name should work fine without them as long as the other A records have been added.
If you have any questions about this process, please contact the Network Solutions support team here as they should be able to further assist you with making these changes.
GoDaddy
When adding any A or AAAA type records for the root domain name (example.com), the hostname value for these settings should be entered as @ and not the domain name itself.
