Before you start

When you create your account, with either MyOrderBox or MyFoodFast, we automatically create a temporary domain running on myfoodfast.co.uk for you to test and see your site.

When you are ready to start placing real orders:

Ensure you have bought a domain and have the right to change the DNS records for it.
We recommend you register and mange the domain with CloudFlare [How to transfer domain](https://developers.cloudflare.com/registrar/get-started/transfer-domain-to-cloudflare/)

Send Support the domain you wish to use.
* We will reply to you with the DNS record changes, specific to your domain, you will need to make within 24 hours, and will look like below.

Domain Provider

Login to the Control Panel of whoever is controlling your domain.
Look for the DNS settings for this domain

We suggest this is done on a Sunday night to ensure you're ready for a Monday, to minimise the risk of any downtime.
