You can't do CNAME with the root domain record. That is all.

  Yes, your screenshot shows you putting a CNAME in at your domain's root. The GUI should have disallowed this, as it's not permitted in DNS.

    It's telling that the writer included a screenshot rather than just stating what he did. He believed the GUI was doing something for him when it was not.
