  Hi, I registered sport-management.eu.com and when adding this to my blog, I get the following message:

  Other subdomains of this domain are registered to another user at WordPress.com so you can’t use it for your site. Only that user can register other subdomains.

  Does anyone has a solution for this?

  Many thanks in advance,
  Regis

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

  Mapping a Subdomain requires to add a CNAME record to your domain. If EU.com isn’t yours then it’s not possible. You can read more about domain mapping in this guide.

  Thank you.
  Do you think having a hosted WordPress would enable me to use this subdomain ?

  It’s only possible if your domain has as control panel where it allows you to change the DNS records.

  At what domain registrar did you register the domain name? otherwise please contract your domain registrar.

  I registered with Gandi, they have such a control panel.
  Thanks again.
