Using Ghost Pro which suggests that my WWW be an A record pointing to an IP and my root record be a CNAME pointing to my domain.ghost.io
Can I reverse that where the root points to IP address and the WWW points to the CNAME? I don’t want to use www either ways- which can simply forward to my domain.com
Not all registrars support a CNAME at the root. If yours does, you can do it either way (just make sure you put in what you want the domain to be in Ghost, and then do what it says for DNS).
There are directions (including using the root domain) here: Adding a custom domain
Thanks Cathy- I did follow those instructions. I guess it was just a waiting game and everything started working 15ish minutes later.
