@girish No I've not patched manually, I have assumed sorry
I assumed the latest update was with the CNAME/A-record fix was live.
The thing was that my home server has been offline for a while and when I started it up it updated to from v7.0.4 to v7.1.3 then v7.1.3 to v7.1.4.
After that the DNS propagation didnt work any longer, as it had done before.
