  I’ve tried to add a Zone Record for the domain suomenhevosliitto.fi but it asked me to contact support. Could you please add the Zone Record for me?

  A DNS (zone) record already exists for your domain name, but it looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-helper/?host=suomenhevosliitto.fi

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

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

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Let us know if you have any questions!

  Hi again,

  I got to the name servers finally and updated them, but the domain is still not working. Should I still do something about the DNS or other settings?

  http://suomenhevosliitto.fi/ appears to be working properly. Here’s what I see at the domain: http://d.pr/i/Cqm8/2njx8N8c

  When a domain is registered or altered, there is a process called propagation, where information about the domain name is passed to internet service providers all over the world. This process can take up to 72 hours (though usually much less). During that time, you may also receive a warning message in your browser about “redirect errors”. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your internet service provider updates their records. Please rest assured that everything is proceeding normally with your domain.

  You can continue to update your site while your custom domain propagates, by going directly to your Dashboard, here:
  https://suomenhevosliitto.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  If you still have trouble viewing the site after 72 hours has passed, please try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clear-your-cache-and-cookies

  If that doesn’t work, try clearing your local DNS cache:

  Please let me know if you have any more questions.

  Thanks a million, now it seems to be working great. It was just the lag which I didn’t know beforehand, and decided to ask after not finding the answer right away. :)

  No problem, I’m just so relieved to get it finally working! :)
