  Hi,

  I recently purchased my own domain name and have now moved to using HostGator as my host as well. However I have been having difficulties accessing my wordpress.org dashboard. Typing http://yourdomain.com.wp-admin auto directs me back to my wordpress.com dashboard. I understand that sometimes it takes time for everything to be transferred but it has been more than 3 days already. Please advice. Thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi it’s due to you’re log in to your wordpress.com account. First log out of wordpress.com account and then try log in to wordpress.org. Same is the behavior when you try log in to your second account here on wordpress.com cause you can not login to two accounts at a time.

  Hi,

  Thanks for replying! Where do you log in at wordpress.org? Cannot seem to find the page to login on the wordpress.org site!

  Actually, disregard those instructions. They are not good.

  It can take up to 72 hours for the DNS to settle down, and at that point you should be able to sign in to your WP.org blog just fine from the addresss whatever.com/wp-admin OR whatever.com/wordpress/wp-admin . Make sure you try both/.

  I am honestly very confused now :(

  I still get redirected back to my wordpress.com site either way. It’s now more than 72 hours…
