  Can someone tell me the IP addresses I currently need to point my Wix site to WP?

  I came up with the following error message when I tried to update the nameservers on Wix:

  Thank you for contacting Wix support.

  It is not possible to change the nameservers of a domain purchased from Wix.

  Instead you can:

  Point the domain to an external site
  Transfer the domain away from Wix

  I understand from reading through other forum posts that (1) WP doesn’t accept domain transfers and (2) the IP addresses change over time, but I don’t think there’s another straightforward option just now!

  Could someone let me know which IP addresses I need to point my A records to?

  Thanks!
  Wasp

  Note: WordPress.COM blogs do not have permanent IP addresses. IP addresses here can and do can change over time and your domain may stop working if you rely on them. For more information about domain mapping and IP addresses please read https://en.support.wordpress.com/ip-addresses/

  Hey there,

  What I posted in the linked thread is still current, so you should have success using those IPS at the moment.

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!

  Thank you both! I wasn’t sure if those ones were still current but I will use them. I’ll be mapping the site to WP more permanently at some point, I just need a stop-gap measure to get it online :)
