Domain Transfer Help

[gin2]

Can anyone help me? My domain has been released by Shopify. I have upgraded my Square online in order to have my own domain. I have tried connecting it but it isn't working. I tried connecting it using the transfer domain option BEFORE realising Shopify had released it. Square says the domain is connected and to don nothing but its been 6, 4 business days and nothing. When typing in my domain address I'm taken to the shopify page. When clicking on the domain through site publish square i get the sever cannot be found error...

Hey @gin2,

Thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear about the frustrating experience with your domain transfer. Could you share a link to your site, and let us know if you followed this guide when connecting your domain?

Hi thanks!

I’ve tried again and followed that. Domain is ginnyreynders.com

 It doesn't look like your domain is currently pointing to Square's IP address when looking it up via a DNS look up tool. This is why your site is still redirecting to Shopify. To edit your settings, log in to your Square Online Dashboard, select Website > Domains > select Edit next to your domain. From there, you will need to make sure that the only records on your domain are as follows;

1 A - type Record with the host/value set as the "@" or the * symbol (depends on your registrar) pointing to "199.34.228.164"

&

Another A type Record with the host value as "www" and pointing to "199.34.228.164".

Please give our support team a call if you're still having trouble with your domain, so we can take a closer look at your settings, and status of the transfer. Unfortunately, this isn't something I'm able to take a closer look at via this forum. Please let us know how you go!
