  I’ve tried to add a Zone Record for the domain changecoachdk.com but it asked me to contact support. Could you please add the Zone Record for me?

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

  Hi there, a zone record already exists for changecoachdk.com and it looks like you were able to register and map it. Just let me know if you need further help.

  What I am trying to do is get my changecoach.dk (on dk-hostmaster.dk), domain to point to changecoachdk.com, (changcoachdk.worpress.com), but seem unable to do so. Are you aware of restrictions on what .dk domains can point to?

  Hi there, are you trying to map the domain changecoach.dk to your changecoachdk.wordpress.com site by adding it through Store > Domains?

  I’m not aware of any particular .dk restrictions on domain mapping.

  Would it be possible to upload a screenshot of the error you see, to help in troubleshooting?

  Here’s a guide on how to make a screenshot, if you’re not sure: http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/

  You can upload the screenshot in your Media Library so I can see it. Thanks.

  Many thanks for your reply. I think what I am trying to do is the opposite of what you suggest: the result I want to achieve is that, if someone points their browser at changecoach.dk, they in fact go to changecoachdk.com, if that makes sense. Can I achieve that by buying a domain mapping upgrade?

  What I see on your account right now is that you already have the domain changecoachdk.com mapped to changecoachdk.wordpress.com and set as the primary domain. This means that visitors see changecoachdk.com in the address bar of your browser.

  You can map a second domain, changecoach.dk, to your site, while leaving changecoachdk.com as the primary domain, so visitors will still see changecoachdk.com in the address bar of their browsers. Visitors will be able to reach your site by going to http://changecoach.dk but will only see changecoachdk.com in their address bar.

  If this is your goal, you can follow the instructions for mapping an existing domain. If you get stuck at some point, please let me know the error you’re getting and I’ll try to help further.

  Thanks for your help – I was trying to do things the wrong way round: trying to redelegate changecoach.dk from the Danish end before adding it to wordpress.com. Once I used my small brain to apply a bit of logic I realised that this is not possible! All now seems to be good.

  Thanks again
