    Hello Aternos Team

    I would like to suggest to add a system where users can pay you for a month or a year to change the IP address on their server (ex.: .net,.com, etc.). Basically they pay Aternos by pressing a button on their server site. When they pay, you simply change their ip. The user can pay the money for a month just like other server hosts, or they pay the whole year. I think you know what i mean (i hope so). So, i know you guys want to have your system completely free but most players want to have a custom IP on their server, it's not necessary to pay that money for the IP anyways. If a person has named their server hypixel.aternos.me and want to change it to hypixel.net for example, they have to change the name first if there is another server that has the same ip. That's my idea and i think it could be useful. If you can't make that system, please let me know.

    Thanks, and sorry for the long text.

    Sorry but even if they wanted to offer such a service they wouldn't be able to... that's not how the internet works, however if you want to do that you can... and for free... you need to have a domain name and a dns service provider... then you just need to point your domain to the dns and configure the dns to have a subdomain that redirects to your aternos server link, that way you can have your server and your forum/website/whatever over the same domain.

    here is a free dns service: FreeDNS
    here is a free domain name service: Dot.tk

    the method works, I did it myself with a hamachi server long time ago. I will not help with anything else, if you really want it, do it yourself, good luck, have a great day.

    Edit: you also need to add a record for your website in the DNS, othewise your website will not be acessible anymore...

    That's not what he want to ask. He wants to change the Minecraft server's ip (.aternos.me) by making a purchase

    well, I just said that Aternos had no way to do that, they would need to make their dns available to you, and you would then need to configure your domain to route through their dns but, it's possible to be done without Aternos intervention, and for free. Sorry if my comment was a bit offtopic by explaining the setup process.
