  I’m about a week short of the 60 day limit to transfer my domain so I’d like to temporarily point melissawessel.com to melissa-wessel.squarespace.com

  It seems from past questions that this is something that I cannot do myself and needs to be done for me. Sorry about that! If there’s a way I can do it myself, please let me know. Maybe a better question would be is there a way to get around the 60 day limit so we don’t have to do this temporary pointing nonsense?

  Hi Melissa, while there isn’t a way around the 60-day issue, I’d be glad to point your domain to Squarespace for you.

  Could you please confirm which domain you want pointed to Squarespace – is it melissawessel.com? (melissawesselphotography.com – is past the 60-day mark and could be transferred, as long as you haven’t changed the registrant contact information in the last 60 days.)

  Oh sorry, I’d actually like both if that’s possible? But if I can only choose 1, I’d like melissawessel.com to be pointed

  Yes, both domains can be pointed to Squarespace.

  I see a Google Apps MX record (for email) on melissawesselphotography.com – could you please let me know if you still need it preserved? Thanks.

  No worries! I’ve updated both domains to point them to Squarespace.

  I’m sorry to see you go, but I wish you all the best with your new site.
