      I can't tell where to add an A record in Cloudron. I searched through every Cloudron setting page I could.
      This is the error I receive when changing the URL of my app.

      "Add an A record manually for www.abc.com to this Cloudron's public IP"

      I purchased the domain around 1/2 hour before trying to change an app to that domain. This is the error I received when the app failed to propagate.

      "Error : DNS Error - DNS A Record is not synced yet: ETRYAGAIN"

        Hi @Shaun-Snapp,

        I think for a proper answer some more details are needed, like how do you manage dns in general for your domain?

        The general dns documentation for Cloudron is located at https://docs.cloudron.io/installation/#domain-setup

        Whenever I purchase a new domain name, I add it to my Cloudflare account, add the domain with the cloudflare api to Cloudron. Afterwards the domain can be added for new or existing apps.

          @Shaun-Snapp said in Add an A record manually for the domain:

          "Add an A record manually for www.abc.com to this Cloudron's public IP"

          That message is saying that you have to add the A record manually in your domain provider (not in Cloudron). Cloudron cannot add/remove DNS entries for the domain because it's "manual" mode and thus has no programmatic access to your DNS.

          The place where you purchased your domain most likely has a Domain/DNS control panel where you can add/remove DNS entries.
