  Hello @usernamenotfounderrorcode143,

  Are you trying to register a custom domain name (iamiffi.com), or you’re only changing the site address (iamiffi.wordpress.com)?

  If you are trying to register a domain name, you will need an upgraded WordPress plan in order to do that. You can find more information from this link.

  If you’re only changing the site address, you can do that in your WordPress.com Dashboard.

  In order to get to this page, you can just simply click the link below:

  https://wordpress.com/domains/manage/iamiffi.wordpress.com/edit/iamiffi.wordpress.com

  1. Click on Edit Site Address. Then you will be taken to your WP Dashboard with the list of your blogs/websites.
  2. Hover the blog address you wanted to change to show the options. Click Change Blog Address.
  3. Make sure to read everything, and fill it out. Then follow the prompts.

  You can also find more information from this link.

  Let me know if you need further assistance.

  Regards,
  Rose
