I apologies if this question is already answered,
I have one droplet running (1G) and wish to add several sub domains point to multi wordpress sites.
While trying to add A records and CNAME via the Digital ocean networking panel, it will only allow me one or the other. When I try to add both, I’m presented with a error message " CNAME record can not share name with other records"
Am I making some stupid mistake?
