   This blog I'm setting up for someone. First time I'm doing this. I have my own sites that my husband manages on Pair. Anyways I upgraded to the mapping and registration to be able to have a .com with out wordpress in the address plus be able to add an email. Problem is I need to add an DNS record which I have know ideal how to figure out what that is suppose to be, there is an example but that doesn't help as I can't figure out what its suppose to be for this site. Then the other thing is how to add the email.

   Any help would be nice..

   The blog I need help with is capttonyfromal.com.

   I have read that, the problem is I have NO ideal what to put there. I bought the domain through wordpress I thought this would be easier then this. I do not know anything about coding.

   Is there anyone that can look up my account and help me with this one on one?

   You don't need to do anything because it is working at my end by going to:

   You will be the last person to see any changes because this is how DNS works. Have you tried using a different browser to see if your domain loads in it?

   Please post back.
