I have a very specific DNS setup that I want to keep and therefore Siteground punished me by not allowing me to have subdomains. Great solution! Thank you!

Thank you for this tutorial..but my question is how can I remove the current CNAME already exist in the domain

[aha]

Do i have to change something with the dns when i had a temporary domain in siteground and then bought a new domain in siteground, to which i changed the primary domain? Or since i did everything in siteground i dont need to change something there?

Hi, is it also possible to point my domain to my siteground website without changing my nameservers at the domain registrar? So is it possible with an A-record?

This is way too complicated to be a helpful instruction video. The video gives extraneous information while glossing over the important steps. Is there another resource out there?
