  I want to map my subdomain to my wordpress site but it doesn’t seem to work. When I make a payment it says :

  DNS CNAME for blog.lunatu.com needs to point to lunatubeauty.wordpress.com.

  According to my registrar this subdomain has already been mapped as the following:
  blog.lunatu.com. CNAME lunatubeauty.wordpress.com.

  The domain is http://lunatu.com
  What could be wrong? Please help! Thank you.

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

  Hi there,

  I have double checked and blog.lunatu.com does have a CNAME to lunatubeauty.wordpress.com. It appears that the reason why you were seeing the error is enough time hadn’t passed since the CNAME was added. It can take between 4-72 hours depending on your Internet provided.

  Please try to map the domain again in a few hours and let us know if you have any trouble.
