i need to move my domain address from wordpress TO squarespace, my domain is julieloschmann.com. i have done everything the help pages have told me to do, but i can’t find the right answers and its not working.
i think the problem is that squarespace doesn’t provide ‘name servers’ and i don’t have a CNAME for them?
im so confused! please help me with this issue!?

kind regards,

julie

Hi there!

Since they don’t have name servers, Squarespace should supply you with A records to setup your site. Their directions are a little out of order, you should start here:

And here’s a guide for changing your A records here at WordPress.com:

Point a Domain to an External IP Address

You won’t need to do the CNAME record they have listed, you’ll just need to do this last step of linking your Squarespace site to the domain:

Let me know if I can help further!
