I’ll try to explain this as easy as i can. Say someone goes to example.com i want them to get redirected to test.example.com. It’s the same domain but it just goes to text.example.com.

Hi, <br> <br>The simplest way to redirect people would be to just create a dns cname record for example.com redirecting to test.example.com. Please note you would need to make an a or aaaa record at example.com for the redirection to go anywhere.
Adding an A/CNAME record isn’t enough – you also need to configure your webserver to actually redirect users from example.com to test.example.com.
