My IP is 138.197.159.43. However, I followed some advice on the DO forums, regarding my situation, to change Wordpress General settings so that Wordpress is accessible through my website name instead of my IP. Now I cannot even access my Wordpress dashboard. I setup my ‘A’ records and my ‘CNAME’ records following the tutorial. I’m not sure what else I have to do. Do I have to wait more than 24 hours? Someone please help me.

I can see your website too – it appears to be working fine! On cached DNS records; if you make any changes to your DNS records it can take a lot of time (sometimes several days) for those changes to propagate around the internet. Realistically, most changes are visible in an hour or so – often less.
sir i am safeerkhan from srilanka my website can not open dns cmd setting till same problem and i try all data deleted cookies deleted i dont know what to do more plz help me resovle problem my websit www.shifa.4t.com
Sounds like a problem of what I’m having now too. I could access wordpress.org and wpbeginner.com myself last night and tonight I am unable to access both websites. wordpress.com is instead loads fine.
Deleted all cookies and caches and restarted my router didn’t seem to overcome the issue. I think my problem is exactly the same as jqsonlee where I could access the sites via mobile internet data but somehow doesn’t work on my router’s wifi.
I remember using the Google DNS server last night 8.8.8.8; 8.8.4.4; I even emptied using on default, didn’t work out too. Does this mean I have to access the site via mobile data forever? lol
Post is old dated back 2017, I was thinking if jqsonlee would have his updated solution to this by now.
