  Hi, I have added a domain to your dns and have to configure the dns to point back at Google apps.
  Google used to have a CNAME verification but now only txt. It seems that the WordPress automatic dns settings don’t work anymore.

  What ever I’ve tried, Google says:

  Verification failed for http://klonhammer.com/ using the DNS record method (less than a minute ago). Your verification DNS TXT record has the wrong content.
  Show found DNS TXT records
  10 google-site-verification=KETMbPWVDi-8eNpoIMOJG1L6bU056jkDATS0-UkbORQ. 20 v=spf1 include:aspmx.googlemail.com ~all

  How do I need to enter this into it into the DNS of WordPress.

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

  Thank you – that’s the solution!

  WordPress should update their help file, it’s pretty easy once you know it but I’ve seen hundreds of posts of desperate people.
