  I am wanting to change my domain name teediddlydee.com from my current server at weebly.com to my new wordpress site. BUT I have a hosted wordpress account with Arvixe. According to Weebly, I can update the nameservers on my domain to provide a new host with full DNS control. This is what Weebly also said:

  If you decide to host your website somewhere other then Weebly, then you’ll need to point your domain to the location of the new site. Your new host should provide you with either Nameservers (ns1.example.com), IP Addresses / A-Records (199.34.228.100), or CNAME Records (ghs.google.com) that enable you to make this change

  So how do I find out what my nameserver, IP address, or CNAME record is???

  AND if my wordpress site is hosted with Arvixe, does this affect it??? HELP!!!!!!!!

  Here is my new wordpress site hosted by Arvixe:

  http://teediddlydee.linkymoney.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fteediddlydee.linkymoney.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fnav-menus.php&reauth=1

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

  http://teediddlydee.linkymoney.com is not a free hosted WordPress.COM blog and we do not provide support for it here at WordPress.COM.

  You are posting to the wrong support forums. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

  A note on my teediddlydee.wordpress.com site….I don’t even think this site is relevant. To make a long story short, I moved my blog over from Weebly to a free account on WordPress.com.

  teediddlydee.wordpress.com)

  Then I moved it over AGAIN to a wordpress site hosted by Arvixe.

  http://teediddlydee.linkymoney.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fteediddlydee.linkymoney.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fnav-menus.php&reauth=1

  I am assuming I need to get the Nameservers (ns1.example.com), IP Addresses / A-Records (199.34.228.100), or CNAME Records (ghs.google.com) of the new hosted Arvixe site??? ….and how do I do this?????

  It’s not a matter of trying. It’s a matter of posting to the correct support forum which is at WordPress.org. There you will get the help you need.
