  Hi, I have a photographic blog here at WordPress, that works fine until last Monday, when I’ve decided to purchased for 13USD the subdomain and change it to

  events.patricio-michelin.com

  my proffesionnal web page.

  Since then, the web site it is not working anymore and I don’t have a clue about DNS and CNAME, etc, etc…

  I’ve already tried to clean cookies, to look at it from different computers, from different browser but still nothing :-(

  For technical stuff: My domain is events.patricio-michelin.com and it is hosted in GoDaddy but I think the problem comes from WordPress…

  I would be glad if you can fix this as soon as possible, because is my tool of daily work.
  Thanks
  P.

  Hi there,

  I just did a lookup online of the domain events.patricio-michelin.com, and it looks like you’ve not yet pointed it towards our servers.

  What you will need to do is contact GoDaddy and tell them you need to create a CNAME for your domain “patricio-michelin.com” called “events” which points to patriciomichelin.wordpress.com.

  So again, the record will need to look like this:

  events.patricio-michelin.com CNAME patriciomichelin.wordpress.com

  They should be able to help you do this or maybe even take care of it for you!
