  Hi guys,

  Do i really need to change the nameservers and manage DNS through WordPress.com. This is a big no cigar sorry. The client has dns on godaddy for other applications and I aint touching it.

  Please advise if I am missing dns only instructions.

  This domain is with godaddy. I added it to WordrPess, but the mapping page first tie visit was blank. The domain shows in the domains dashboard, but there are no records in Godaddy.

  Any help appreciated.

  Hi there,

  We offer alternative DNS options if you don’t want to change the name servers, specifically A record IPs and CNAME records. You can learn more here:
