Changing the nameserver

    I’ll be up front about the fact that I’m a total newb with this stuff. I purchased a domain (confident.al) previously. Just set up my WordPress blog. During set up the instructions told me the DNS wouldn’t work unless I changed the name server or something rather. Tried using NS1.confident.al and that got shot down. I would like that to be set up so I can change the blog site address. Looking for some help here. I appreciate it. Thanks.

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

    Hi there,

    I see that you set your nameservers to Wix and not WordPress.com.

    Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

    • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
    • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
    • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

    For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

    http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

    After you do that, please make sure to update your Primary Domain on your Store > My Domains page as well.

    Let me know if you have any questions!
