I host my page on A and want to setup my domain name to forward to A. Users should see the godaddy domain name instead of the actual URL on A. However, I would like to maintain the path and parameters in the URL such that: http://actualURL.com/path/?q=test should show as http://godaddydomain.com/path/?q=test. I use masking: it works well in showing godaddydomain.com instead of actualURL.com but it hides too much info. Any solution?

This option is not currently available with our masking feature. I will pass this suggestion along to our development team for future consideration.

If the standard domain forwarding is used, will the URL parameters be passed along to the new domain?

Yes, with standard forwarding the URL parameters will be passed to the destination domain.
