Question

Hello, I am following the “How To Set Up a Host Name with DigitalOcean” guide but am running into an issue. At step 3 - configure your domain, there is no option in my dashboard under Networking > Domains to add a domain. Where can I add a domain?

I am able to run whois and see my name servers set correctly.

Please advise.

It should be easy to find :-)

Add domain at dashboard

Now I see it. There must have just been a delay after setting up my droplet and changing nameservers.

  Sometimes the hardest things to find are right up in our face.
  
  For the record, the name servers you choose have no impact on whether that UI appears or not.

  There should be an additional hint in “Step Three—Configure your Domain” https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-host-name-with-digitalocean
  
  “Within the Networking section, that you find in the main menu on top, click on Add Domain, …”
  
  I was running into the same issue, and there will be many more :)
