Our control pages let you manage the DNS for your domains.
 
 
==Long txt Records (over 256 Characters)==
txt records are a max of 255 characters in DNS. If you need to have longer than 255 characters, then on the control page you can quote separate sections so that each quotes section is less than 256 characters long, for example:
 
Value: "long part 1.....200 characters..." "long part 2..... 200 characters..." "long part 3..... 200 characters..."
Value: "part1" "part2" "part3"
 
This is useful for long txt records, such as DKIM data, for example:
 
e.g. [[File:Dns-txt.png]]
 
You can include a quote with: \"
[[File:Dns-error-1.png]] [[File:Dns-error-2.png]]
 
==Error: TXT field too long, add quotes==
==Other DNS Pages==
Sometimes you may have an error if you try adding a record that is longer than 256 characters.
<ncl style=bullet maxdepth=1 headings=bullet headstart=2 showcats=1 showarts=1>Category:DNS</ncl>
 
In this case, split your record in to smaller sections and quote them inside speech marks.
