cPanel Zone Editor lets you manage authoritative DNS records for domains that use Pakish nameservers. Open Domains → Zone Editor → Manage, then add or edit A, CNAME, MX, and TXT records for website routing, email delivery, and authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC). Always note existing values before changes and allow time for DNS propagation.
New to cPanel? Start with the beginner's guide. Registering domains? See register and transfer a domain to Pakish.
| Requirement | Details | |---|---| | Nameservers | Domain must use Pakish NS (check at registrar) | | Current records | Screenshot or export existing zone | | TTL plan | Lower TTL before major migrations |
Create or confirm a usable backup first. Availability and limits may vary by hosting plan or server configuration.
Zone Editor manages the DNS zone file for each domain on your account. It answers questions like:
example.com? (A / AAAA)If DNS is managed at Cloudflare, GoDaddy, or another provider, edit records there — not in cPanel Zone Editor.
| Type | Purpose | Example |
|---|---|---|
| A | IPv4 address for hostname | example.com → 192.0.2.1 |
| AAAA | IPv6 address | example.com → IPv6 |
| CNAME | Alias to another name | www → example.com |
| MX | Mail server priority + host | 10 mail.example.com |
| TXT | SPF, DKIM, DMARC, verification | v=spf1 ... |
| CAA | Certificate authority restriction | 0 issue "letsencrypt.org" |
TTL is seconds DNS resolvers cache a record. Use 300 (5 min) before planned changes; 3600 (1 hour) for stable records.
example.comexample.com): often @ or blank name field — use A recordblog.example.com): A or CNAME depending on targetAvoid CNAME at apex if your zone requires A/ALIAS per provider rules.
| Record | Purpose | |---|---| | SPF (TXT) | Lists servers allowed to send mail for your domain | | DKIM (TXT) | Cryptographic signature for outbound mail | | DMARC (TXT) | Policy for failed SPF/DKIM alignment |
Use Email Deliverability in cPanel to view recommended values for your domain — do not copy generic SPF/DKIM strings from other domains. For deliverability troubleshooting, see email going to spam.
| Conflict | Problem | Fix | |---|---|---| | Duplicate SPF TXT | Email fails SPF checks | Merge into one TXT record | | CNAME + other records on same name | Invalid DNS | Remove conflict; use A record | | Wrong MX priority | Mail routes incorrectly | Set lowest number = highest priority | | A and CNAME on www | Unpredictable resolution | Pick one approach |
dig MX example.com or an online DNS checkerAfter saving Zone Editor changes, resolvers worldwide update on their own schedule. Many users see changes within minutes; full global propagation may take longer depending on TTL and ISP caching. Read DNS propagation tips — do not expect instant worldwide updates.
| Problem | Fix | |---|---| | Changes not visible | Wait for propagation; flush local DNS cache | | Site points to wrong server | Correct A record; remove stale CNAME | | Email stopped | Restore MX; verify SPF not duplicated | | SSL validation fails | Confirm A record; check CAA records |
Contact support for DNSSEC setup, custom nameserver glue, zone corruption, or when your domain uses external DNS but you need record guidance. Visit /domains or /support.
An A record points a hostname to an IPv4 address. A CNAME record aliases one hostname to another hostname. Use A for apex domains and CNAME for subdomains pointing to another name, not directly to an IP.
No. A domain should have only one SPF TXT record. Merge multiple include mechanisms into a single SPF record to avoid deliverability failures.
Propagation depends on TTL values and global DNS caches. Changes often appear within minutes to a few hours but can take up to 48 hours worldwide. See our DNS propagation guide for acceleration tips.
Edit Zone Editor only when your domain uses Pakish authoritative nameservers. If DNS is managed externally, copy records to that provider instead.
Email delivery stops for your domain until MX records are restored. Always note existing values before editing and keep a screenshot for rollback.
