adding txt record for domain verification

Question

I would like to verify ownership of my domain by adding TXT record. For that i have two set of values 1)TXT Record Name: _acme-challenge.cooloffers.in Value: M6ozS9PeCBZ-Q1sw4mBuJ3tsbuLQTMAkISHF--noe0k

TXT Record Name: _acme-challenge.www.cooloffers.in Value: 7jeD7BMCmB5ksXIi7QYmp3gC6lGv-_E1s-ZW2mUNjKQ

I just have to add those values from DNS Zone, then it will return via the function dns_get_record("cooloffers.in"); ?

How we can verify after adding those pair of values?

I can see your TXT record. `dig txt sadsad.cooloffers.in` returns `sadsad.cooloffers.in. 3600 IN TXT "@"`. If that isn't what you wanted to know, could you edit your question to be a bit more, well, coherent? — MadHatter, Apr 06 '17 at 13:10

The standard tool for checking DNS records is dig, which tells me that your first TXT record is being propagated, but the value is wrong:

[me@risby logs]$ dig txt _acme-challenge.cooloffers.in
[...]
;; ANSWER SECTION:
_acme-challenge.cooloffers.in. 3600 IN  TXT     "n5tDWoEdtXV_fF8Xv52eyyhbv03cIv3o2FPMFBHjtEA "

The second one isn't:

[me@risby logs]$ dig txt _acme-challenge.www.cooloffers.in
[...]
;; ANSWER SECTION:
_acme-challenge.www.cooloffers.in. 3600 IN CNAME cooloffers.in.

The reason the second one isn't working is that you've put a CNAME record on the node, and that precludes any other resource record from being advertised on that node.
