Use Subdomain differently from a domain connected with Adobe Portfolio

Hey,

I have got a problem with my domain I have connected with Adobe Portfolio. I can use it in a normal way but I want to use a new subdomain from my domain differently, especially not with Adobe Portfolio. But no matter what I upload in my web space connected with the subdomain, I always get redirected to an Adobe Portfolio Page, which says that the page is missing (https://portfolio.adobe.com/missing). 
Does someone know how to solve this problem? I am looking forward to hearing from you!

    See link below for details on using a subdomain with your Portfolio site.

    To answer your question about using a subdomain on a different server, you'll need to change the DNS settings from your domain provider's website.  Point the subdomain's A records to your new server's IP address.

    I don't think so.   But you may have up to 5 Portfolio sites.  1 with custom domain and 4 with generic myportfolio URLs.

    • Site 1: your_domain.com (main site)
    • Site 2: your_name.myportfolio.com
    • Site 3: your_name_xyz.myportfolio.com

        Hey,

         

        thanks for your answer. I have got several A Records, do I have to change all of them to the same new IP Address or just the ones for the subdomain?

        Read the link I posted above.

        If you change all A records to a new server, then everything will direct to your new server.  Is that what you want?
