Use a custom domain name

I tried using my OLD registered domain via WordPress.com and came across the following annoyance:

This domain’s A-record is not pointing to Tumblr.

You need to change your domain’s A-record to:

66.6.44.4
Then I tried typing the same/old Tumblr.com blog address and encountered this other annoyance:

This subdomain’s CNAME is not pointing to Tumblr.

Please change the CNAME to:

domains.tumblr.com
  • It may take up to 72 hours to update. Please return to your Blog Settings after 72 hours and hit “Save.”
  • You do not need to update your domain’s nameservers.
