If your custom domain uses an A record, updating it to Libsyn\u2019s current IP address is an important step whenever infrastructure changes occur. Alternatively, using a CNAME can reduce future maintenance by allowing Libsyn to manage IP address changes behind the scenes. After updating your DNS settings, allow time for DNS propagation before verifying that your custom domain is working as expected.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do I know if my custom domain uses an A record, CNAME, or Libsyn\u2019s name servers?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check the DNS management panel provided by your domain registrar or DNS hosting provider. An A record points your Libsyn Custom Domain to an IP address, a CNAME points it to another domain name, and name server settings are managed separately through your domain registrar rather than as individual DNS records.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why does Libsyn recommend using a CNAME instead of an A record for custom domains?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An A record points your Libsyn Custom Domain directly to a specific IP address, so infrastructure changes that require a new IP address also require you to manually update your DNS records. A CNAME points to a hostname instead, allowing Libsyn to manage infrastructure changes without requiring updates to your custom domain configuration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where can I manage my custom domain settings in Libsyn?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can manage your Libsyn Custom Domain from your Libsyn dashboard under your show\u2019s settings. If you\u2019re unsure where to find the option, refer to Libsyn\u2019s latest custom domain documentation, as menu locations may change over time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who should I contact if my custom domain stops working?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your Libsyn Custom Domain no longer resolves correctly, first contact your domain registrar or DNS hosting provider to verify your DNS records. If your DNS settings are correct but your custom domain still isn\u2019t working with your Libsyn show, contact Libsyn Support for additional assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How long does it take for an A record change to take effect?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DNS updates usually begin taking effect within a few hours, but global propagation can take up to 48 hours depending on your DNS provider and cached records. During that time, some visitors may still reach the previous destination while others see the updated one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will updating my A record affect my podcast episodes or RSS feed?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. Updating the A record for your Libsyn Custom Domain only changes how your custom domain resolves to your Libsyn show. It does not modify your podcast episodes, RSS feed, or media files, so your podcast content remains unchanged during and after the DNS update.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you use a Libsyn Custom Domain with an A record, you\u2019ll need to update your DNS settings to point to Libsyn\u2019s new IP address.
