    Could anyone help me how to connect WordPress site to my existing domain purchased from another source.

    I have mistakenly selected to transfer my existing domain to WordPress instead if connecting when selecting the payment plan.

    Thanks

    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    Hey there,

    If you set up a domain transfer instead of a domain connection by accident, we can cancel the transfer and then set up a new connection. To do so, first remove your existing domain transfer by visiting Upgrades > Domains > [your domain], and then select Delete. Once the transfer is deleted, you can connect your domain by selecting Add a Domain > Use a domain I own from the domains page. We also have a great help document here:

    Hope this helps!
