For a DNS record's name, should I enter @, the full domain or just the subdomain?

It depends on the format expected by the form where you add the record. The symbol “@” usually represents the domain itself, without a subdomain. For a subdomain such as “shop.example.ro”, some forms require just “shop”, while others accept the full name.

Read the field instructions before saving: if the domain is appended automatically, entering the full name could accidentally create “shop.example.ro.example.ro”. After saving, check the resulting name in the record list. Do not assume that “@” works the same way in the name and destination fields; those fields serve different purposes.
