  i am using a wordpress domain and hosting on godaddy. i have changed the dns settings to point to the correct Ip address, and it still inst working. i have also tried changing the namesevers (even though support said i dont need to) and still not working.

  Hi there,

  It looks like you were just missing the last CNAME record needed to make http://www.wonderfulknifefilm.com (with “www” at the beginning) point to the right place. That’s step 12 in our guide here: Mapping a Domain Registered with WordPress.com to a Site Hosted on GoDaddy

  I added that in for you, which should be the last step to making everything work the way it needs to. However, it can take more than a few hours to changes like that to take effect — sometimes it can take up to 72 hours, so you might need to wait a bit longer before you see the change.

  If your domain doesn’t start working with your GoDaddy hosting soon, please let me know and I can take another look at it for you. If you prefer, you can also transfer your domain registration to GoDaddy so you can control everything in one place. We have a guide for that here: Transfer a Domain to Another Registrar

  Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
