    Hi All

    Hopefully I am posting in the correct forum.

    My company will soon be setting up a web shop. We are going to use a sub domain off our main domain name eg shop.ourdomain.ie.

    How can I get it to be a www.shop.ourdomain.ie rather than shop.ourdomain.ie as it seems to be at present?

    Might be a silly question, but please advise.

    Many thanks
    Paddyo

    Contact your hosting provider.

    It's simply a matter of creating an extra DNS record and rejigging the server config slightly

    If you have an SSL cert this will complicate matters...

    Hi BlackKnight

    I dont have the SSL cert yet - but I am about to get one.

    I have the extra DNS record for shop.ourdomain.ie and it is pointing to the correct ip address. Do I specify www where I setup the extra DNS?

    Many thanks for your assistance

    I'd honestly recommend you contact your hosting provider, as I have no idea of what you are using or have access to.
