FAQs
Q1: I'm unable to add the same domain to my other subaccount/location:
The same domain/subdomain can't be used in 2 locations
Q2: Why can't I update my primary domain?
The primary domain can be updated if you have added an additional domain.
Q3: I've added the A / CNAME record, but the domain is still not being added
This can happen due to a few reasons.
- There is a typo in your domain name [like in the example above]
In this scenario, fixing the typo will resolve your issue - Your DNS changes haven't been propagated yet.
In this case, you must wait longer and try again after a few hours or the next day to see if it works. - Your DNS configuration is not set up correctly.
Please get in touch with your Domain Provider and discuss the errors with their support team. - Maybe you have conflicting (multiple) records for the same subdomain [for example, if blog.mydomain.com has a CNAME record pointing to wp3.msgsndr.com but it also has an A record pointing to some other provider]
In such cases removing the other duplicate record will fix your issue.
Q4: I can't connect my root domain (ex., mydomain.com)
.Please make sure there are no additional AAA, TXT, records, etc if you plan to use that slug/root domain for WordPress
Q5: How many WordPress sites can I have per sub-account
You can have as many sites you wish to under a single account, there are no limitations :)
Q6: How can I request to cancel a client's WordPress subscription?
To begin a WordPress Cancellation Request, you must navigate to "Delete Site" under the Advanced settings of your Wordpress Dashboard after you complete the 30-day minimum committment period.
