  I want to edit the primary site address to my own domain address which is sensiblehealth.net.au
  It is not allowing me to do so.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  You’ll need a paid plan, any paid plan, to set that domain as the site’s primary address: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/#set-a-primary-address

  I have done that. It doesn’t work. I have another WordPress account and I checked that my original site is mapped to the second account. I bought a business plan with second account, still the same issue. Can you help?

  @omijoshi88gmailcom,

  I’ve manually set the domain as primary on the site now. If it still goes to the free address for you, please clear your browser cache.

  Note that if you let your plan expire, or cancel it, the domain will go back to using the free address, as a paid plan is required to have your own domain on WordPress.com.
