I've got a domain name I've brought and host somewhere else. I actually own unlimited space with fatcow. I redirected the dns server pointers to here on fatcow. How can I acces

You can't transfer a domain to WA as it's not a registrar. You simply point the DNS at the registrar where you bought it to the hosting here: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/wa-hosting-setting-up-your-domain-dns If you've set the DNS to point to the hosting here, it can take up to 24 hours before it propagates. You can check your DNS propagation at http://www.whatsmydns.net/ Your domain name won't just appear here at WA, you'll need to Build A New Website on A Domain I Own (Premium Domain) and enter the domain name manually. :) Rich.

Ok already done that, as I create and host domains already for my clients, so know the process of redirecting nameserver settings to dns servers here ie ns1.mywahosting.com etc.
But when I built new website here says page can't be found even though dns pointer correct at other host. They were redirected at least 4 days ago?
Its when I click the admin login etc. that coming up saying not exist. Maybe I'm just being impatient and need wait longer.

It shouldn't take four days, it might be working fine and it's your end, you may have cached the build. If you want someone to check, feel free to post the url or PM it to me. You can try clearing your browser cache and cookies and flushing the DNS at your end, https://www.whatsmydns.net/flush-dns.html :) Rich.

Ah I was being impatient it needed time to build the wordpress files etc. I was being to fast :-)

No probs. :) R.

Thanks all good

Is there anyway to can save a link or tag to your favourite articles from other members on here? If not a think this would be a great addition to WA.

Thanks all I do have my own method of saving links/bookmarks etc, just thought it would be easier for everyone if there could be a favourites type function against each profile. Was more thinking of solutions for the whole community rather than just me :)

Croninweb had a great suggestion. Open up rapid writer and copy/paste the url's of anything you like into a new blank article. But obviously don't publish it. Like SpiritRocker, I've heard a rumour re a new bookmarking tool for 2014.

Hey Torben. I recommend Pocket http://getpocket.com which allows you to bookmark anything not just content at WA. Your bookmarks are saved in the cloud, which means you can access them from most web-enabled computers and devices, not just your own PC or Mac. :) Rich.

You can also save them as an article, not for use but for memory in rapid writer, this means you have instant access at any time!
To your success!

There is a rumor I've heard, from fairly reliable sources, that a bookmark feature is comming soon, perhaps early in 2014. But until then, the search function brings up what you need pretty efficiently if you word it well.

They used to have that feature. I don't know why they got rid of it but it would be a great re-addition because I always find myself wanting to save articles on here.

Hi Torben - you could keep a file on your computer, or you could register (free) for something like Pinterest - that lets you save things you find useful/interesting, and categorise them - and retrieve them at any time.

I hope this helps?

All the best, Mark

That would be a great addition but for now I keep a text file on my computer with all of the links that I have been saving.
