This article will inform you on how to use WPX XDN without pointing your domain with NS records.
You can still use WPX XDN by simply pointing the A records for your domain to a set of specific IP Addresses which can be found in your WPX Account.
Step 1. Log in to your WPX account
You can log in to your WPX account here.
Step 2. Navigate to your hosting plan
You can either find your hosting service through the navigation menu or within your dashboard. Once you log in to your WPX account select My Services (1) → WordPress Hosting (2).
Then you will see all of your hosting services with us. When you find the plan that you want to manage, you need to select the orange button Manage service.
Step 3. Navigate to the Server Details Section
Once you select Manage Service you will be automatically redirected to the Service Details menu from where you can view the Server Details. There you will find two XDN IP Addresses.
The second option is to click on WPX XDN Menu (1) and then you’ll see all 4 XDN IP addresses (2):
Step 4. Point the domain with A records
The next step would be to point your domain via A records from your current domain registrar or active DNS zone.
They are a set of two A records that need to be implemented for both the “@” and “www” versions of your domain.
You will need to implement all four A records in two sets to complete the process. An example can be given from Cloudflare where the site is pointing to WPX XDN:
If you are using Cloudflare and want to point your site to WPX XDN, you can follow this article.
Keep in mind that the A records used in this article are examples. You will need to check the specific IP Addresses from your WPX Account in Server Details to make sure you are using the correct ones.
That’s it! You would need to wait approximately 1 hour for DNS Propagation and our WPX XDN to start working properly.
