  I would like to add the CNAME: “specialty”
  And have the destination: “ghs.google.com”

  Please keep the other CNAME’s “app” and “mail” as is.

  Thank you

  Hi there,

  I’ve added that CNAME record for you. You can also add, remove, or edit your domain’s custom DNS records under Store > Domains in your site’s dashboard here:

  https://dvmdotcom.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

  We have a guide for that here: Custom DNS

  However, these records will only be active if your domain is mapped to WordPress.com, using the WordPress.com name servers:

  • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Right now, your domain is pointed somewhere else. Your domain registrar can help you point the domain back to the WordPress.com name servers if you’d like.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that.
