  I recently brought the domain missvidlerict.com through WordPress for my blog site. However, I brought this domain through the wrong account (registered with (email visible only to moderators and staff)). As this is not the site the website is hosted by, (its through (email visible only to moderators and staff)), i can’t use it. Is there any way i can transfer my purchase over to the other account.

  Thanks,
  Rachel

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

  We can get this worked out.

  The first step is to verify that both accounts belong to you. Could you post to this thread from your other account and verify that you want to get the domain upgrade transferred?

  Thanks for the help. This is my other account, the one in which I brought the domain from my mistake. I’d like to transfer it to my other account so I can link it to my blog.

  Thanks,
  Rachel

  Thanks for doing that! The easiest way for me to transfer the domain for you is if you add your second account to the site the domain is attached to currently.

  Can you do that for me? Then I can transfer the domain for you.

  Alright. Thanks for doing that!

  I transferred the domain missvidlerict.com to missvidlerict.wordpress.com and transferred it to the user missvidlerict.

  Let me know if I can help with anything else!
