  Hi,

  I’ve tagged this thread for the mods to look at so they can provide you with the IP address for your A record.

  Keep in mind that setting your domain to use WordPress.com nameservers is the preferred method of adding a domain to your store, rather than using external DNS and an A record.

  WordPress.com IPs change over time, which could cause your domain to stop working at some point in the future. If that happens, you will need to get in touch with us again to find out the new IPs so you can update your A record accordingly.

  Hope this helps!

  Regards,
  Jay

  Hi James –

  If your domain provider requires that you map with A records you can share these with them:

  192.0.78.25

  192.0.78.24

  Remember that these details will eventually change, at that time your site will stop working. You’ll need to get in touch with us for the updated information. The name servers are a constant value which is why it is the preferred method for mapping.

  The full instructions to map your domain are available via: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/
