  My domain registrar isn’t recognising the wordpress.com name servers:
  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM
  They say I need to be updated to recognise my blog and the servers… please help!!

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

  What is the domain name that you’re trying to map?

  My registrar (from SA Domain) says “”Please note that the nameservers have to be setup and accessible before the update is done or it will not go through”.

  So, it seems I need to make sure I am setup properly on the WordPress side?

  You need a zone record added – the staff should add one for you shortly

  I have manually added a zone record for your domain.

  You should now be able to map it here following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
