  Hi, we purchased the hosting and domain name lymetrailassociation.org from wordpress.com, however, we are using wildapricot.org to construct our site. I need to set up the DNS records but I don’t know how to do it for wordpress. Below is the DNS information that wildapricot requires, can you help me with formatting the text correctly so that it will validate? I understand where I should enter this information, I just don’ t know how to format it properly. Thank you! :)Lisa Reneson, Designer

  Name: http://www.lymetrailassociation.org

  TXT record

  Hi Lisa,

  Because Wild Apricot uses an A record, it’s actually a little trickier than usual and requires logging in to the domain manager for your domain. I went ahead and entered this DNS for you, so you should be all set.

  Please note that it can take 48-72 hours for domain changes like this to take full effect. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please let me know!
