  When i click on view site or type in my Url it says ‘server can’t be found. It has been working fine. Haven’t posted in a while, so when I went to post yesterday, it couldn’t pull up my blog. the dashboard seems to be working fine. I didn’t do anything, like i said haven’t posted since March, or even logged in. Help?

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

  Looks like your site is still correctly hosted on our end, but once the domain mapping kicks in that’s where the error is. Your blog settings have a domain mapping for blog.journeytherewands.com

  Please visit your domain settings for journeytherewands.com at the registrar where you purchased it (not WordPress.com). In that domain’s DNS settings, make sure there is still a CNAME record like this one:

  blog.journeytherewands.com. IN CNAME journeytherewands.wordpress.com.

  Basically, I’m having you check to make sure Step #1 is still correct of this guide:

  If that CNAME record is missing, adding it back in will fix it right up. :)
