Improved
The past week we’ve made the following changes.
Instead of showing an error when submitting (or more realistically pasting) domain names containing upper case characters (e.g. in CNAME records), we now automatically convert the domain name to lower case
We have improved one of our internal monitoring subsystems allowing us to respond to incidents faster and more effectively

Improved
Fixed
Since the last update we’ve been mainly focused on improvements under-the-hood, but we do have some improvements to the new zone log we’ve recently introduced.
We fixed an issue where record additions were being processed as if they were deletions. This caused deletions to incorrectly appear in the synchronization log entry
We no longer display a record modification in the synchronization log entry when an internal property is updated
Small UI tweaks in the zone log
October 3rd, 2025
New
The past week we’ve made the following changes.
We’ve added an icon and label to the various zone collections indicating if the Realtime Register zone uses premium DNS
We have massively overhauled the zone log
The page load time has improved significantly, the page now loads almost instantly
Detailed diff views are now available, showing you exactly which record and which value were changed
We have removed the superfluous “zone is up to date” entry to make it easier to find relevant events
Fixed an issue importing Vimexx zones due to Vimexx API changes
Fixed an issue where zone invites could not be accepted under certain circumstances

New
Improved
Fixed
The past week we’ve made the following changes.
Invites to a zone will now be deleted automatically when they have been inactive for 7 days or more
We no longer allow uppercase characters in domain name form fields. This is only an issue for Realtime Register zones, but generally speaking this is undesirable
We no longer allow hidden Unicode characters in form fields. This usually happens when copy+pasting DNS records from other places and always causes opaque synchronization problems
Fix for the expired trial page crashing
Fixed an issue where zones would disappear from the zone overview page when you delete a customer to which the zone was added
We have improved the locale detection
Many under-the-hood changes to keep ctrlDNS safe and up-to-date
September 3rd, 2025
Fixed
We have made a slight change in the ordering of processing changes with Exonet to improve synchronization reliability
Fixed an issue where deleting a zone in ctrlDNS would crash
August 28th, 2025
Fixed
Fixed an issue where ctrlDNS contact details would still be shown in the Userflow widget for whitelabel environments
Fixed an issue where sending an invite to a customer would crash
