Managing the DNS records of a domain in hPanel

Updated over 3 months ago

To manage the DNS records of a domain registered at Hostinger, navigate to the Domains section → Domain portfolio. Then, click Manage next to the domain in question:

If the Renew button appears instead, click on the options button (⋮) next to it to reach the domain management page.

You can find your domains purchased elsewhere and pointing to Hostinger nameservers in the External domains section below My Domains.

For domains pointed elsewhere, use the DNS management tools provided by the respective platform.

Once on the domain management page, select the DNS / Nameservers from the left sidebar:

At the top of the DNS / Nameservers section, there are four main tabs: DNS records, Child nameservers, DNSSEC and DNS history:

The availability of child nameservers and DNSSEC settings may vary depending on the domain's extension (TLD) 💡

Manage DNS records

The DNS records tab leads to the DNS zone management, where you can add, edit, and delete records:

Add a record

To create a new record, enter the values for type, name, content, TTL, and any other additional information required, depending on the record type. Once it’s done, click Add Record:

Here are some detailed guides for each record type:

Edit or delete records

You can view the full list of DNS records for your domain below the Manage DNS Records section. Use the search bar to find a specific record.

You will have the option to delete or edit each record.

  1. Delete: the record is removed without requiring further confirmation.

  2. Edit: enter the new type, name, target, and TTL values, then click on Update.

After changing your DNS records, wait up to 24 hours for them to propagate. If you change the domain's nameservers to a different provider, the DNS Zone management will move to where you pointed your nameservers.

Restore records

To restore your DNS zone to a previous version, select the DNS history tab and click on Restore next to the date for which you want to roll back any DNS changes:

Review the DNS snapshot to ensure that these are the records you want to use to fully replace the current values.

Then, scroll down and mark the checkbox to accept that restoring DNS may affect your current website and that it will require some time for the changes to apply.

Once everything is good to go, click Restore DNS zone. Once propagation is completed, your DNS records will be restored.
