admin two domains
-
I have two domanies. But can only design the first one, since it’s set to be the main domain. How do I get go edit both my sites, and how do I get to air both of them seperately.
When i type dragonflyfly.com in the main bar i redirects to majjohansen.com
It would also be nice to know if I could have my main page majjohansen.com just lead to my other domain dragonflyfly.com … and maby a third domain ?
Thanks if anybodys out there … ;-)The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

So at the moment, you have both dragonflyfly.com and majjohansen.com set up to point to your http://majjohansen.wordpress.com/ site. So in reality, you have one site, with two domains. If you’d like, you can set up another WordPress.com site, and i can help you transfer one of the domains to point to it. That way you would have two sites, one for each domain.
Is that what you are looking for?

Hi Rootjosh
Yes! I think so. Except that I dont know what ‘point to’ means. I’m a writer that would like to have my own site (majjohansen.com), and also have a site (dragonflyfly.com) that reprecents my book, that I can design so that it stands on its own, and that I can administrate sepperately.
thanks Maj -
I can help you with that.
By “point to” I just mean that when someone enters majjohansen.com into their web browser, it sends them to the WordPress.com site http://majjohansen.wordpress.com/.
What I think you should do is to set up another WordPress.com site, perhaps dragonflyfly.wordpress.com, and we will set dragonflyfly.com to point to it. That should solve the problem I think.
To set up a new site, log into wordpress.com and go to:
http://wordpress.com/my-blogs/
The scroll to the bottom and click the “add a new blog” button and follow the instructions.
Let me know if you have any trouble.

Hi again, and sorry for not getting back til now.
When I follow the instructions on ‘ad a new blog’ it says that dragonflyfly.wordpress.com already exists? That might be me right?
-also I got the impression that I with my registration could start more than one domaine by payind the yearly fee, but I have to pay 18 dollars again? … so now I ask is it right that I have as many subpages as i want on the domains I by?
again thanks for your time. -
it says that dragonflyfly.wordpress.com already exists? That might be me right?
You could have created another account at some point. Does this look like a site you would have created:
http://dragonflyfly.wordpress.com/
also I got the impression that I with my registration could start more than one domaine by payind the yearly fee, but I have to pay 18 dollars again?
It is $18/yr for each domain.
so now I ask is it right that I have as many subpages as i want on the domains I by?
Can you explain a bit further what you mean by this?
-
Hi and thanks so much for your help.
-that’s funny that link is not my web, I dont even understand the words? – in my account I have this information :
dragonflyfly.com Manage Domain Subscriptions
Active Renews on september 19, 2014 Edit DNS
Manage Email. Does that mean that I baught something that cannot be baught?
It’s quite a bommer for me if thats true, because I already filede the name with some organisasations as my publishing company?!Ekstra question pops up, now that this have gone wrong, I have a friend who said I had to change the ‘admin’ word in my https://majjohansen.wordpress.com/wp-admin, because it’s to easy to hacked … he got hacked on a simple Wp family page?!
Again thanks for your help, I hope we can clear up the mess with the dragonflyfly domaine, please tell me how to go about this, -it looks like I have to fold my cards and come up with a nother name … and fix it in all the other places that I have filed it as a publishing company.
All the Best Maj -

So, just to be clear, you own the dragonflyfly.com domain, that is not in question. What is not available is the dragonflyfly.wordpress.com account. Now, since you are going to use dragonflyfly.com as your primary domain for a dragonflyfly WordPress.com account, it doesn’t really matter what the ______.wordpress.com URL is, since nobody but you will ever see it.
I would start a new dragonflyfly1.wordpress.com blog (or dragonflyflyfly.wordpress.com or whatever) and then we can move the dragonflyfly.com domain to it. Does that make sense?
I would not worry about the login URL. For one thing, you can’t change that on a WordPress.com site and for another a strong password (and 2 factor authentication) is your best bet for keeping your account safe:

Hi again
Thanks for answering the admin. question, I’ll look into my password. :-)
About the other one, I know it’s too late to change the domain name bacause of your terms of use. But I’ll try. If it is at all possible i would like to give back the dragonflyfly.com name, because of this insident, and change it to – smallpocketsofwind.com – in stead, (also a dragonfly term) would that be possible, and if I should be so lucky, how would I go about that, – and make it a domaine seperate from my original one. (majjohansen.com) If It would be possible it would mean the world to me. I have cheked out a lot of names just now, and that one is awailable.
Again thanks for your help… -
PS : I have just registered smallpocketsofwind.wordpress.com as a free blog, I know it’s not my page yet, but just the otherway around, like the person who got the dragonflyfly.wordpress.com … just so you know that the registration for smallpocketsofwind.wordpress.com – that’s me.
-
– sorry I’m adding something to todays first enterance … I’m asking to give back the dragonflyfly name in hope that i can get my money back, or you maybe could swich the two names without an ekstra cost.
-
..oh my G: i’m sorry I’m really active today. Now i’m looking through the themes thats for free, that is the excact same themes as on my prmium blog majjohansen.com … did i miss out on your buisness deal … get more theme choices if you go premium. I would wery much like to know that, bacause theres not to many dark themes to choose from … and a lot of the ones i could choose from with the premium membership cost money.
thanks again.

Why not just have draginflyfly.com point to your new smallpocketsofwind.wordpress.com site? The WordPress site name (smallpocketsofwind) doesnt’ have to have anything to do with the Custom URL you choose (dragonflyfly.com).
And no, there are no more theme choices with the WordPress.com Premium upgrade.
WordPress.com Premium includes:
-A Free Domain
-Custom Design
-VideoPress
-Space Upgrade
-Ad-FreeFor more info, you can refer to this page: http://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/pro-bundle/
Despite the similar name, WordPress.com Premium doesn’t include any of the Premium themes available here:
Does that make sense? Please let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks, I’m not sure that I fully understand, The dragonflyfly.com is to point to my smallpocketsofwind page. But i would like it to say
smallpocketsofwind.com to my custumers, and not with the WP in between, is that doable? Where do I then click in to controle the page? On dragonflyfly? or smallpocketsofwind.wp.admin?
Earlier you wrote this :

So then I need help to explain where I can work on my page and if my custumers can write http://www.smallpocketsofwind.com and enter my page?
Maybe you can try to explain to me what ‘point to’ means? Is it like i clik on the word icecreame, and it sends me to ben&jerrys homepage?
thanks for your patiense, You must get a special spot in heaven :-)
All the best Maj -
.. PS another reason I need to know if I can get dragonflyfly canseled is that i would like to go premium on it so that I can get the premium features.

Let’s go back to the beginning rather than confusing ourselves any further.
You have two domains right now (dragonflyfly.com and majjohansen.com) and one WordPress.com site (majjohansen.wordpress.com). Either domain, when entered into a web browser, will send the viewer to majjohansen.wordpress.com.
Is the following correct:
What you would like is two different sites-
1. The existing majjohansen.wordpress.com with the domain majjohansen.com being what is displayed to users and what they enter into their browser when they want to view your site.
AND
2. A second completely different with the domain dragonflyfly.com being what is displayed to users and what they enter into their browser when they want to view your site.
Is that correct?
-
Yes that is sort of correct, in princip. And if what I’m asking below can’t be changed, Your correct, and we should proceed with that.
What I have been asking is if I can regret – even tough at this late state – if the dragonflyfly.com could be canseld – deletet – and instedead i get the smallpocketsofwind.com as a seperate site?
Right now i have reserved the smallpocketsofwind.wordpress.com (free9 account, just in case I -
So here’s how I have it set up right now:
dragonflyfly.com is connected with your smallpocketsofwind.wordpress.com site
&
majjohansen.com is connected with your majjohansen.wordpress.com site
Neither site shows the _____wordpress.com URL in the browser bar, both show their respective custom domain names (majjohansen.com or dragonflyfly.com).
Will that work?
-
Hi
Thank you so much for your patience. What I hoped for was that we could cansel dragonflyfly.com – and everything about it’s existence
and only use the custom domain name: smallpocketsofwind.com
(and my original page majjohansen.com)
Can that be done?
