To park a domain, you have to set up 2 nameservers.

ns1.dongyanatics.com and ns2.dongyanatics.com  Each one using the IPs located in the Domain Manager section of the Admin CP

What domain host did you purchase the domain from?

What you'll need to do is go to them and find out how to setup nameservers.

Name them ns1.dongyanatics.com and ns2.dongyanatics.com

And use the IPs located in the domain manager section. Once you have done that, you can go back to the domain manager and put your link in the text box and click the button.

Once you've done that more text will appear in that section of the Admin Panel. There will be a link in all caps saying "VERIFY URL".

Because the changes you've made to the nameservers can take from 24-48 hours, your URL will not verify immediately. When you click that link you should expect to go to a page controlled by your domain host.

When you click the link and all you see is a "1" in the top corner, then click "Update Forum URL"

Step 1 in Domain Mangager

Did you create these 2 nameservers:

ns1.dongyanatics.com
ns2.dongyanatics.com

Did you point them to the IP number (Found in Admin > Domain Manager)

Step 2 in Domain Manager

Put only this in the box:  dongyanatics.com
Click Park Domain

After doing this wait 24 to 48 hours for the DNS to Resolve.
THEN click the Verify URL Link.
Once you see a "1" go ahead and click "Update Forum URL"

Don't attempt to verify the url until at least 24 to 48 hours have passed.

Double check your settings with your domain host.
Do ALL of the following:
1. Make sure the nameservers are correct.
2. Make sure you pointed them to the correct IP number.

After you are positive the above are correct:
    Make sure you put ONLY dongyanatics.com in the box for Step 2 and clicked Park Domain.

Do not click "Update Forum Url" until you have made sure the above is set correctly and have gotten a 1 when clicking Verify URL (after 24 to 48 hours)
