If your domain is currently pointing to Hostinger<\/a><\/b> and fully propagated<\/a><\/b>, you can easily reset the DNS zone on Hostinger dashboard.<\/p>

Resetting the DNS zone will revert all records to their default values<\/b>. This can be helpful in situations like stuck propagation, when records aren’t displaying, or to ensure your domain has all necessary record values to work with your Hostinger hosting account.<\/p>

There are two methods to access your domain’s DNS zone, depending on where you registered your domain:<\/p>

For domains registered at Hostinger<\/h2>
    \n
  1. \n

    Go to the Domains<\/a> <\/b>section and click on Manage<\/b> next to the domain:
    \n\"\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    On the left menu, go to the DNS\/Nameservers<\/b> subsection:
    \n\"\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Once on the DNS Zone<\/b><\/a>, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Reset DNS Records<\/b>:
    \n\"\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Read the confirmation message and click on Reset<\/b> to proceed. After 24 hours<\/b>, your domain’s DNS zone will be fully propagated<\/a><\/b> worldwide<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>

    For external domains<\/h2>

    If you have a domain purchased elsewhere added to your hosting plan<\/a><\/b> and pointing to Hostinger by nameservers<\/a><\/b>, follow these steps:<\/p>

      \n
    1. \n

      In the Domains<\/a> <\/b>section, scroll down to the list of External domains<\/b> and click on Manage DNS<\/b> next to the domain:
      \n\"\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      On the DNS Zone <\/b>page, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Reset DNS Records<\/b>:
      \n\"\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      Read the confirmation message and click on Reset<\/b> to proceed. After 24 hours<\/b>, your domain’s DNS zone will be fully propagated<\/a><\/b> worldwide<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>

      \n

      If your domain’s nameservers point to another provider, you need to manage your DNS zone from there<\/a><\/b>, even if records are displayed in this section.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
