  I’m looking to redirect my currently owned domains to this free one provided by WordPress. I was advised that I need to change the Type record A in 2 fields within WordPress. I have been unsuccessful to find the location of where to change this. May I please be shown where to find it so I can change it?

  Hi there!

  To be able to map a custom domain to a WordPress.com site, you’ll need to purchase one of our paid plans.
  After this is done, you’ll be able to follow these steps:

  Also, note that your Business plan expired so if you’d like to use any lower plan, we’d need to need to revert your site to the state it was before you uploaded the first plugin.
  You will likely lose all content added afterward, so I’d suggest exporting all your content before we proceed.
