motacilla Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Hi, I've got a problem with connecting the website with my own hosting and domain. There's an additional IP address and its Required Data form is blank. I've already matched the remaining four in the DNS but I can't figure out what to do with the fifth. Screenshots attached. Thanks! Link to comment

This is because the record shouldn't exist in your DNS settings. If it still exists, it should be deleted. Me: I'm Paul, a SQSP user for >18 yrs & Circle Leader since 2017.

motacilla Posted June 30, 2022 Author Share Posted June 30, 2022 Thanks for answering! But it appears in five of the records in DNS (ftp, mail, motacillastudio.com, pop, smtp). Should I change the IP of these records in DNS from 181.110.51.200 to one of the IP addresses from Squarespace? Or just delete them all? Link to comment
paul2009 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) The '@' is shorthand for the domain name. If your domain name is motacillastudio.com, this is the one to remove.

mzuniga51 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 So I've been trying to configure my site with Squarespace. My domain is .lat so it cannot be transferred to Squarespace and is currently managed by Namecheap. When I try to connect I see this and as you see the last record is just empty. All other records are currently found. I don't know if this has to do with it but I get a SSL error as well. Any thoughts? Link to comment

You need to log on to Namecheap and delete the record shown above in red. Me: I'm Paul, a SQSP user for >18 yrs & Circle Leader since 2017. I value honesty, transparency, diversity and good design ♥.
