Also the Nameservers are blank!...

Don't forget to restart BIND DNS Server once you are done with the changes.

Did you add the child name server to the domain registrar dns ?

recommendation :
use free dns service by cwp or by cloudflare

If you mean A recodrs lika @ and www that points to my server then yes

Added domain to the free dns, but nothing changed? Replaced old records with registrar to
ns1.centos-webpanel.com
ns2.centos-webpanel.com
ns3.centos-webpanel.com
ns4.centos-webpanel.com
ns5.centos-webpanel.com

Maybe it needs some time, but sensually 15min...

Maybe there is an option to reset all settings from the start? I cant figure out what is wrong....! HELP!

Do i need to set nameservers to ns1.centos-webpanel.com and ns2.centos-webpanel.com?

You already use freedns.centos-webpanel.com, then you can ignore any error abaut named/zone/bidn in your CWP, can disabled too

I think that is the same problem :(
The site does not open when this occurs, I restart the server then it back works normally.
