Domain name/InMotion host connection

Hi, thanks for this.
I am new to this, and have purchased a domain hiddencornwall.uk from nominet. I purchased hosting space from yourself. I am trying to connect the two. Wordpress is/was preinstalled for me by you. When I go to my domain/wordpress/admin it is blank. On my nominet page I am asked to choose a template in the add/modify DNS zone page for the domain. there are a lot of options: "Select a template from the dropdown list to quickly add records in the most common configurations. If you have an email or hosting package for the domain(s), select the template for the shared hosting platform. If you have a Windows hosting account, select the windows hosting template. If you have none of these services and wish to use forwarding or the FirstPage facility, select the template for the forwarding server. Your changes will not be applied until you click the save button." Options are apache hosting cluster,windows 2012 hosting cluster,site maker hosting, apache 2015, pages commerce, pages ecommerce (simplyhosting only), web and email forwarding, holding page without forwarding or first page, or cPanel. I have put in cPanel. Please advise if this is correct and if there is anything else I need do to connect the server space to the domain, thanks.

Hello, Thank you for contacting us about connecting your nominet registered domain to InMotion Hosting. Typically, you would just Point to our Nameservers: ns.inmotionhosting.com - IP Address: 74.124.210.242 ns2.inmotionhosting.com - IP Address: 70.39.150.2 But I could not locate a guide on how to accomplish this with nominet. Since you "have an email or hosting package" with us, it seems like you should "select the template for the shared hosting platform." If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below. Thank you, John-Paul
