How to detach a domain from your Managed WordPress Hosting
You are able to detach your domain name from your Managed WordPress Hosting at any time. Follow the steps below to detach your domain name via the xneelo Control Panel.
Note: If Mail hosting has been activated, detaching your domain will result in your email account/s and all email content being permanently deleted. We recommend that you back up your mail to prevent loss of data.

What happens next
By detaching the domain name, your website URL will be replaced with a placeholder domain which will be visible on the Managed WordPress overview page.
Once your domain is detached from the Managed WordPress hosting, the domain name will remain active. If you’d like to cancel your domain name, you may do so via the control panel.
You are able to attach a domain again at any time.
