here is what I have in DNS settings in CP of DigitalOcean

A @ 178.xx.xx.xxx NS NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. NS NS2.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. NS NS3.DIGITALOCEAN.COM.

Huge thanks in advance

Hi,

you need a CNAME record for “www” subdomain, like this:

dns_cname_www

or, if you wish a wildcard:

dns_cname_wildcard
