How do I set up a Minecraft play domain?
- Go to the game panel and click on your server.

- Copy the numeric "IP address".
- Go to the client area.
- Click on domain names.

- Then click on the "Domain name" you want to create a play domain for.
- At number 1, enter this as the "Hostname": "_minecraft._tcp.play". Number 2: once you have done this, select "SRV" as the Record type. Number 3: then enter "5 25565 play.voorbeelddomein.nl." in the Address field. By default it shows 25565 as the port — you need to change this to the port shown on the game panel. You can find this under "Server Information" IP: the part after the colon is your port. Then replace the domain name play.voorbeelddomein.nl with your own domain name. Don't forget to put play. in front of it, otherwise it won't work! Then click on "Save Changes"
