Domain “active” on wordpress account but not active when I try to go to it

    hello everyone.

    I’m new here. I’m in trouble with my new website. http://www.octetlanocturne.com

    At first I bought this domain with Wix. Then I decided to use wordpress. I did all the long process to transfer my domain.

    My domain is now active on my page “Domains” but with a little info telling me to point to wordpress. Which I did… I just selected “use wordpress DNS”. I wait more than 72h.

    When I go to http://www.octetlanocturne.com It tells me “Looks like this domain isn’t
    connected to a website yet”.

    I’ve tried everything. I searched everywhere. WordPress assistance is impossible to reach via there website. There’s a bug.

    I beg for help.

    Thank you

    Hi there,

    Looks like when you transferred your domain, it also had Wix’s A record. That’s why it continued pointing to Wix even though you’ve changed its name servers.

    I’ve changed the A records to ours, and your domain will shortly start pointing to your WordPress.com site.

    If this doesn’t work or you have more questions, just let me know, and I’ll be happy to help!
