Everything you need to control a domain registered with FimuroHost is on one page in your client area. This guide explains each option, what it changes, and when you would use it, so you can manage your domain confidently without guessing.
Open the domain management page
- Log in to your FimuroHost client area with your email and password.
- Go to Domains → My Domains. You see a list of your domains with their status and expiry date.
- Click the domain name, or the Manage button next to it.
The options appear as tabs or a menu on the left (on a phone, they are in a drop-down at the top).
The options
| Option | What it does | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
| Overview | Shows the registration date, expiry date, status, and the recurring price, with the auto-renew switch and a renew button. | Checking when the domain expires or turning auto-renew on or off. |
| Nameservers | Choose Use default nameservers or Use custom nameservers and enter up to five. | Pointing the domain to FimuroHost hosting or to another provider. |
| Registrar Lock | Enables or disables the transfer lock (clientTransferProhibited). | Keep it enabled. Disable only just before transferring the domain away. |
| Get EPP Code | Provides the transfer authorisation code, either on screen or by email to the registrant, depending on the extension. | Transferring the domain to another registrar. |
| Contact Information | Edit the Registrant, Administrative, Technical and Billing contacts (the WHOIS details). | Your name, address, phone or email changed, or ownership is moving to another person or company. |
| Private Nameservers | Register, modify or delete child nameservers such as ns1.yourdomain.com. | You run your own DNS on a VPS or want branded nameservers. |
| DNS Management / Email Forwarding | Only appear if these features are enabled for your domain. They let you edit DNS records or forward email without hosting. | You have no hosting and only need simple records or forwarding. |
Details worth knowing
Overview and auto-renew
Auto-renew is on by default. With it on, a renewal invoice is currently generated 14 days before expiry, and the domain renews when that invoice is paid. Turning auto-renew off means no invoice is created and the domain will expire on its expiry date. See How to Renew a Domain.
Nameservers
Changing nameservers moves all DNS for the domain (website, email and other records) to the new provider. Read Change Nameservers in the Client Area before making a change.
Registrar Lock
When enabled, the registry rejects transfer requests for the domain. Some extensions do not support a registrar lock; in that case the option is missing or shows an error, and that is normal.
Get EPP Code
The EPP (or auth) code is like a password for transferring the domain. Treat it as a secret. If it is emailed, it goes to the registrant email address in Contact Information, so make sure that address is correct first.
DNS Management and Email Forwarding
If your domain uses FimuroHost hosting, manage DNS records in your hosting control panel (for example StackCP → Manage DNS), not here. The client-area DNS options only take effect if the domain uses the nameservers that go with them. If you need these options and do not see them, ask us whether they can be enabled for your domain.
Domain status labels in your list
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pending / Pending Registration | Ordered, waiting for payment or for the registry to confirm. |
| Pending Transfer | A transfer to FimuroHost is in progress. |
| Active | Registered and working with us. |
| Grace / Redemption / Expired | Past the expiry date. Renew or restore as soon as possible. |
| Transferred Away | The domain has moved to another registrar. |
| Cancelled | The order was cancelled or the domain is no longer managed here. |
Protect this page
Anyone who logs in to your account can change your nameservers or take your EPP code. Use a strong unique password and turn on two-factor authentication from the account menu → Security Settings. See How to Protect Your Domain from Hijacking.
