You can use a domain that you purchased from Wordpress to point to your OfferingTree site by setting what is known as a CNAME record. Here are instructions from WordPress to set up a CNAME record: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/custom-dns/
Your DNS records are located in your Domains page (My Site → Upgrades → Domains).
Click on DNS records to expand that component, then on Manage.

To add a new DNS record:
- Select Add a record button at the top right.
- Select the DNS record (CNAME) type from the Type dropdown.
- Fill in the following information
Host Name - www
Alias (Points to) - customdomains.offeringtree.com
4. Click on the Add DNS record button to save the record.
Send us an email to support@offeringtree.com to let us know you have set this up. Please send us your domain name and we would complete the setting to point to your OfferingTree site.
Additionally, we recommend adding a redirect so users that type in your domain without a www prefix are redirected to the www version of your domain. For example, if your domain is example.com please add a redirect so example.com goes to www.example.com. Here are instructions to set up a redirect: https://blog.hubspot.com/website/wordpress-redirect
Use a 302 redirect and pick your domain. For the destination URL, use http://www.yourdomain.com (replacing yourdomain.com with your actual domain). For the "WWW redirect options", select "Do Not Redirect www"
