  Hi,

  I created a website with Weebly and need to point my domain to their servers. Can you set this up for me or walk me through the process of making these changes? I need to create A-Records for “www” and for my root domain. That’s one record for “www” pointing to 199.34.228.59. And one record for the root domain pointing to 199.34.228.59.

  If you need more info on these changes, please see:

  Note that I want to keep using you as my domain registrar. I am not requesting a transfer and do not have new name servers to provide you.

  Thanks!

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

  If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers.

  However, Weebly has some unusual requirements that require Staff intervention so I’ll tag this thread for Staff assistance. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  Hi dacephas, I’d be happy to help you with this process. Can you please confirm the domain name you would like to point to Weebly? (Please note that the request to change the domain settings needs to come from the user who owns the domain.)

  Hi Rachel,

  I would like to point http://eyeboutiqueoptometry.com/ to Weebly.

  I forgot which of us purchased the domain. If it was not me, should I just start a new thread using the other user? Or can I just make a comment on this thread?

  Thanks,
  Joe

  Hi Joe,

  You can have the user who owns the domain make a comment on this thread, confirming the request.

  To check which user owns the domain, you can go to Store > My Upgrades in your dashboard. Under the domain name there, you will see “Purchased by” and the name of the user.

  If you have any questions about this, please let me know!

  Hi Somi, thank you for confirming this request. I updated the settings for your domain eyeboutiqueoptometry.com, so it is now pointed at Weebly.

  Please note that it can take 48-72 hours for these changes to take full effect. However, everything is all set on this end. If you have any questions about this, please let me know!
