Hello,
Still fairly new to this whole site building carry on.

Recently created a Vape review website through X10, GoDaddy and Wordpress:

http://belfastvapebar.x10host.com/

However I can't seem to get the forwarding working for the GoDaddy domain -_-

Can anyone help?

Hi,

The best way of using your GoDaddy domain is to add the domain as a Parked or Addon domain in cPanel. If you choose to use a Parked Domain, your website will load at both your x10host.com domain and your GoDaddy domain, without any redirection.

You can do this by setting our nameservers at GoDaddy. Our nameservers are:
ns1.x10hosting.com
ns2.x10hosting.com

Once you have set our nameservers, you can then add your domain as a Parked or Addon domain in cPanel.

For more information, please see this article:
http://x10hosting.com/support/domains/add-domain-name

Thank you,

Added the Nameservers but when I try to add a Parked Domain I get this error message?

Followed the instructions above but every other page on the site has extensions like this:

"x10host.com/reviews/liquids/"

Are you saying that you parked the domain
and
that when you go to whateveryourdomainis.com the links point back to whatever.x10host.com ?

If so, log onto your WordPress admin area.
Find the Setting for 'Site URL'.
Change it to your custom domain.
Turn off any SEO or custom permalinks.
Save your settings.
Check your site.
Turn your SEO/custom permalinks back on.

Sorry, one more little problem and that should be me for the night :p

The Social Media icons have now changed to little squares since parking the domain?

They appear for me on both mobile and PC. Are you using IE? Well, never mind that. IE8 and above renders it fine but below that it doesn't display them at all.
Try clearing your cache.

I'm using Chrome, flushed the DNS and they're still missing.

Since changing the Domain settings, this now appears when trying to preview changes on posts/pages?
