  Hello everyone,

  I made a website for our lab project and at some point it became bigger and we now need a English version of our website. Our website is socatlab.com and i want a subdomain like en.socatlab.com or eng.socatlab.com. for this purpose i even bought en.socatlab.com but it only mapped en.socatlab.com to socatlab.com. i tried cname thingy but i lost in the halfway. i bought my domain from wordpress and i used my website like a blog so i didnt upload wordpress files to my website. i am a simple man and i like to keep things simple. what should i do for bulid a subdomain?

  Thanks in advance,

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

  You have a WordPress.com site with a custom domain. You need a DIFFERENT WP.com site to use a subdomain on it. Then that second site will automatically look like a sub-division of your main site. So you start the second site, then from that dashboard you follow those instructions.
