  Hi there, here are some instructions on how to point an existing domain to your site and add it to your WordPress.com account:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/#instructions-for-mapping-an-existing-domain

  Certain non-US domains require a DNS zone record added to your account. You can find out how to do that right here:

  If you need any further guidance, just let us know.

  I’ve changed the Domain Servers in my registrar (www.dominios.pt) but the following error appears:

  Problems were detected on the current configuration.

  The nameserver with IP address 72.233.69.14 (primary) does not respond authoritatively for the domain fos.pt.
  You should contact your hosting provider in order to correctly set up your DNS servers.

  Can you help me?

  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/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/
