  I’m having trouble mapping my blog to an existing sub-domain? I have created the CNAME in my domain registrar. The instructions say I then have to make it my primary domain, but when I try to do that it tells me that blog.london-eif.com isn’t a valid domain.

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

  Hi there,

  It looks like you currently have mapping for london-eif.com, but not for blog.london-eif.com. Mapping won’t work without the latter. Would you like me to switch your current mapping over to blog.london-eif.com, or did you want both?

  Thanks very much for your help. Yes, please switch it over to blog.london-eif.com. I tried to do so several times but got an error message telling me that’s an invalid url. london-eif.com will soon have a godaddy website, so I want the blog to be blog.london-eif.com.

  Thank you!

  Not a problem in the slightest! I’ve gone ahead and updated your mapping so that it points to blog.london-eif.com. Your site is already resolving correctly, so you’re good to go!
