  I bought noamosband.com
  I have it mapped to weebly so it you enter http://www.noamosband.com, you get my site. but if you enter noamosband.com, without the www, it just goes to my blank wordpress. How can I change that?

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

  Hi @noamosband . Weebly used to have some instructions here to deal with that, but they’ve removed the page. Can you get in touch with them?

  You can change your DNS settings as you’d like using these steps:

  I spoke to Weebly and I need to ake the change with you guys. What exactly must I do? I made the change a while ago so http://www.noamosband.com goes to my Weebly site. wha tI want now is for noamosband.com (without the www) to do the same. How do I do that? I’m worried about messing with my DNS settings and severing the link I already have with http://www.noamosband.com

  @nomosband I’m really sorry to send you back and forth like this. We can help you change the settings, but as your site is with them, we need to know what settings they want us to use.

  – Please ask them what A records you need, or whether you can use their name servers instead.

  – Please also ask them if they have moved this article, and where the new version is: http://kb.weebly.com/domain-registrar.html (This is the one we used to refer to and it is gone now.)

  Here’s the info I have from them:
  “we use A records, can’t use nameservers, so the IP you’ll point your A record to is 199.34.228.75, although we have multiple so if you see another one that’s okay.”

  “I’m not totally sure what that article was about, was it an article about pointing A records? If so, I think this is the article they’re wanting
  hc.weebly.com/hc/en-us/article…
  That should help you as well, you’ll want to add a * record if it doesn’t show up when www isn’t typed”

  Does this help you figure out how I can set it up now so noamosband.com goes to http://www.noamosband.com? It seems my DNS servers are set up that way but maybe I’m missing something

  I’ve added the one you gave me, but if there are others you can add them here:

  Give it time to take effect.
