  I have a temporary URL that Blue Host said I needed to change. More specifically, Blue Host said I need to change my name server. I looked up directions online and it appears that the directions are outdated. I am trying to load my photography blog as soon as possible. Hopefully someone out there knows what to do?

  Thanks!

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

  If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/

  I’m having the same issue. **The help docs seem to be outdated!!**
  I have domain registered with wordpress.com and need to change the nameservers.

  -When I go to Store I see “My Domains” not “Domains” and there is no section called Domain Administration.

  -There is a Manage Domain Subscriptions and Edit DNS but neither take me to what the support doc shows in the screen shots

  -When I click on Manage Domain Subscriptions I can select “Transfer to another site” but that only allows me to select another blog.

  What is your URL?

  The domain name is imagevideosolutionsllc.com – that’s registered with wordpress.com. Need to point imagevideosolutionsllc.com to another host. I’m posting this issue on behalf of the owner of the domain&blog – I don’t see any upgrades/mapping that direct imagevideosolutionsllc.com to the blog, so it seems all I need to do is change the nameservers, but I can’t figure out how to change them (the instructions do no reflect what I’m seeing in my dashboard)
