  Hi — I’ve been reading through old forums about mapping my domain (now at wordpress) to squarespace, but I’m having some trouble. The thread I was reading was helpful but it was from 2012 and it seems a few changes have happened since then, so some of the steps weren’t quite the same. I realize it could take a day or so for some of these changes to go through, but I’m not sure I did this right and could really use some assistance. Thanks so much! — Ashley

  Hi there!

  You can set your A records to point to Squarespace following the instructions here:

  Point a Domain to an External IP Address

  Once you’ve changed your A Records, you’ll probably need to do step 3 here in your new Squarespace account:

  http://help.squarespace.com/customer/portal/articles/413088#set-up-domain-mapping

  And then it can take a couple of hours for DNS settings to take full effect.

  Let me know if you have trouble going through these directions, and I can help you out!
