I’ve read and read up on this but I am still a little confused on the proper setting up of DNS records for subdomains and mail handling for Discourse.
Let’s say I have a domain whatitis.com:
-
I have a Wordpress blog on a separate server at whatitis.com
-
whatitis.com has its own MX record/email on the above server.
-
I want to put discourse on discuss.whatitis.com on its own server.
-
I want discourse emails to be on the discuss.whatitis.com subdomain.
I’m confused as to whether to set up CNAME or A for the subdomain too, etc. etc.
What’s the recommended format for this sort of thing? I host my DNS on VULTR at the moment and their interface is relatively easy, I’m just clueless as to the proper settings for the above setup, that’s all. ; )
Many thanks.
