Did not put the "www" when mapping domain
-
When I mapped my domain, I left off the www at the beginning. I don’t know how to change it.

I changed the DNS and it worked for a little while, now when I try to access my site it adds too many “www”s. Yes, it shows http://www.www.tessera-games.com now and is broken.

Every time you change the DNS your site goes into a resettling mode that can last up to 72 hours. Don’t do that. Don’t use WWW, it is antiquated and a third of web users cannot see addresses that start with www. Just use the whatever.com address and if someone types www in the front it will work anyway.
-
Just to make myself clear: when I changed my DNS, I was only changing it to the WordPress DNS, as per the instructions (NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM, etc). That was the only change I’ve done. It is strange that it worked for a couple hours, and now all of a sudden it has the double “www” at the beginning.

…and just like that, it has reverted back to the original tessera-games.com address, and is working. Maybe I was just impatient with how long it would take the domain mapping to make or something. Thanks for the reply though!

Now there’s 3 “www”s in front. And I’m not doing anything except customizing my theme.
This is getting ridiculous.
