You need to set up your board so that the domain points to your board .

The IF support forum has detailed instructions for how to do this .

I've done it before. But I'm not so sure I could do it again. Where did you buy your name? Are you going to do a redirect? or a c whatchamacallit?

I only asked because invisionfree will offer support for yahoo. Head over to the invision support forum if you havn't already.

go here

http://docs.zetaboards.com/domains/yahoo

if that doesn't help open a support ticket.

I would suggest the cname instructions as they the domain name actually appears in the address bar

if the instructions don't help open a support ticket. Or I'll take a look as well. I remember it being really complicated till you did it right then so obvious you didn't know why you couldn't figure it out in the first place. :lol:
