In the Seravo plugin, you will find a tool that allows you to manage the name server settings (DNS records) and email forwards for all domains connected to your website.

Managing Domains and Editing DNS Records
You can edit the DNS records for an individual domain by navigating to Tools > Site Status > Domains in your WordPress dashboard and clicking the Edit button next to the desired domain.
Some records are locked: The critical records required for your WordPress site (such as the A records that ensure the site stays online) are locked by default. This prevents the website from breaking due to accidental mistakes.
What can you do yourself? You are free to add and modify other records. Typical examples include:
Creating new subdomains.
Adding TXT verification records required by external services like Google or Microsoft.
Setting up MX records to route email traffic (e.g., Google Workspace or Microsoft 365).
How to Enter Records: Format and Examples (BIND / Zone File)
The Seravo DNS editor uses the official, standard BIND format. Records must be entered on a single line using the following structure:
example 10800 IN CNAME cname.example.com.
Understanding the Parts of a Record:
example= The subdomain you are creating (e.g.,example.yourdomain.com). If you are creating a record for the root/primary domain, enter@here or leave it blank.10800= TTL (Time to Live). This is the record's lifetime in seconds (how long the data is cached). You can typically use values like3600or10800.IN= Internet (this always remains the same in DNS records).CNAME= The record type (e.g., A, CNAME, TXT, MX).cname.example.com.= The value or target destination where the domain points.
Please note the trailing dot (.): When pointing a record to an external address (such as in CNAME or MX records), remember to end the address with a period/dot (e.g., cname.example.com.). If the dot is omitted, the system will assume the address is a subdirectory of your own domain.
Emails and Forwards
In the email section of the DNS editor, you can view and modify email forwarding addresses for the domains linked to your site.
You can easily create new forwards (e.g.,
[email protected]>[email protected]).Note: This tool is specifically designed for forwarding incoming mail, not for managing actual, full-fledged email mailboxes.
