I'm on Course 2, and completed my free website in the starter course. Now I'm attempting to create a new website with a domain I own on namecheap.com. When I use the website builde
Okay, now I have a new problem. I set up my DNS and went through the website builder, and now it's telling me I have to set up an FTP program. On my domain, www.everything-bmx.com, all that shows up is a namecheap page.
I had the same problem when first using my own domain. I purchased my domain through namecheap. There are 2 reasons this error could occur, first if the dns are not correctly set up, and second its too soon, if you have already completed setting up your dns correctly, it might take a few hours, until you'll be able to build your website, here is a step by step on what to do:
1) Log out of your account(namecheap), then log back in.
2) Click on the Mange Domains' button, in the 'My account' Tab, on the right side of the menu bar.
3) In the 'your domains' screen, you should see your domain, click on it.
4) In the left menu, click on the second option, 'Domain Name Server Set-Up'
5) Specify the WA custom DNS servers, for the first two options, then click on 'save changes'.
After you've completed the above steps your domain should be functional within a few hours. Once this happens, you will be able to create your wordpress website from the 'Build My Website' tab in WA, without any further errors.
Hope this Helps :) Feel free to contact me again, if you have any problems, I'll be happy to assist :)
I'm assuming you've changed the DNS to point to the servers here, as per the instructions in the small grey box in Websites & Hosting in the main menu? If so, I'd open a Support Ticket, again in Websites & Hosting, on the blue bar. Rich.

I'm fresh meat here, so I just wanted to introduce myself and be a part of the community. I'm Brandon, and I'm interested in making a niche out of personal development/ moral psych
I too am new at WA and very interested in the personal development niche. So, maybe we will have some things to talk about. I am, however, interested in a few other topics as well. Not quite sure which direction I will go.
Hi Brandon: You have made a great choice joining here, the support from Kyle and the community are tops. I like your choice for your niche, alot of humanity could use some
positive outlook reading material (including myself). Good luck and the best of wishes.
Hi Brandon, great to have you here at Wealthy Affiliate! As you get started you are going to really want to focus on building the foundation of your business. I'm talking about choosing a niche and getting your website up and running. As you follow along with the getting started training here at WA, you'll be doing just this and you'll be doing this in the next couple of days.
Be thorough with your training, ask lots of questions, and always take action on what you're learning.
I look forward to working with you!

No idea on this since my knowledge on computer is just a preschool children.
