  My domain has been mapped to wordpress.com. However, I am still getting an error message when I type in the URL after several hours of waiting and also clearing my cache.

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

  I took a look and everything is working properly. Can you please try clearing out your cache?

  I am stuck at entering the verification code. I have a google email address and emailed them for the code but it seems like I have the wrong information. Does this look correct to you? Below is the info the Google folks sent me. I don’t have the TXT code or if I do can you point it out for me?

  Record name Address Record Type
  calendar ghs.google.com CNAME
  docs ghs.google.com CNAME
  start ghs.google.com CNAME
  mail ghs.google.com CNAME
  sites ghs.google.com CNAME

  Email Settings / Mail / MX Records

  Name Address Preference
  @ ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 10
  @ ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 20
  @ ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 30
  @ ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 40

  Hi,

  I added them. What are the next steps?

  It could take up to 72 hours before the MX records are fully propagated. In the meanwhile you can test every now and then to see if your e-mail works.

  Thanks a lot! You’re the only one who helped me sort this out.

  I hope it works though, haha.

  Anyway, many thanks again. I will followup when it’s working (or not).
