Hi @wommy! Welcome to netlify community.
There was a DNS zone set up for the “annabrabant.com” domain under a different account. The DNS wasn’t attached to any site, so I deleted it from that other account. You should be able to use it on yours now!
thanks!
I did the steps, just waiting for them to kick in.
btw this email didn’t go to my priority inbox so I didn’t see it. the whole forum thing took so many extra steps. if you guys are just manually reviewing all these cases, I don’t see why we gotta post on a forum
Hi, @wommy, thanks for the follow-up. The purpose of the community forum support is so that solutions will be public and, therefore, searchable via search engine.
Our hope is that people with questions will be able to find many answers by searching and, in some cases, that people on community can help each other to resolve issues without any assistance from our support team. (This does happen often and is wonderful to see.)
