Hi,

The template does not work, Nsedit 1.1, Pdns 4.0.3.
In the browser I get "API Error 422: DNS Name '' is not canonical".
If instead of name => ';, I put an actual value such as "www.whatever.com." then it works.
Any way we can refer to the domain somehow, like @ (BIND style) etc?

I have tried the solution mentioned in https://github.com/tuxis-ie/nsedit/issues/142 by @bajizs and that fixes it. Worth checking out.

The canonical thing is a big PITA btw.

$templates[] = array(
'name' => 'Tuxis',
'owner' => 'public', # Set to 'public' to make it available to all users
'records' => array(
array(
'name' => '',
'type' => 'MX',
'content' => '200 mx2.tuxis.nl.')
)
);

The issue is with content, not name, I think. I fixed the example in config.inc.php-dist.
