  Hi,

  Thank you for all your help so far.

  I’d now like to create a category based subdoman.
  My questions –

  I went to this place –
  https://wordpress.com/domains/manage/blogyourniches.com/dns/blogyourniches.com

  From Donains ->DNS Records.

  Not sure what all those fields are and what to select.

  I’d like to have a subdomain like this –

  [category].blogyourniches.com

  How can I do this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  If I understand you correctly, you would like to have a subdomain that would display posts from a given category? If so, that wouldn’t be possible but you can add the categories to your menu:

  If I misunderstood and you still want to create a subdomain, have a look at these instructions:

  hi i have a business plan going in here for lushiglobal.com.

  I want to create a subdomain of lushipages.lushiglobal.com to put different contents. However the steps of creating a subdomain here (mapping a subdomain, changing DNS records bla bla bla) is very different from using a cPanel and very confusing.

  As a non-tech guy, i need a simpler solution.
