Custom Domain Help
-
I have purchased a URL (bleeblu.com) from Enom prior to joining WordPress. I have read then instructions and they do not seem to work. I took a snapshot of my settings. Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong? Thank you!

Can you post the URL to the screenshot for us?
A whois on your domain name still shows the DNS records are not yet pointing at the wordpress servers.
Name Servers:
dns1.name-services.com
dns2.name-services.com
dns3.name-services.com
dns4.name-services.com
dns5.name-services.comThey need to point at:
ns1.wordpress.com
ns2.wordpress.com
ns3.wordpress.comThe other two files (last two) have to be empty or there is a chance of people getting errors.

Hi Mark. Which instructions did you follow? These?
http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/#instructions-for-mapping-an-existing-domainAnd did you follow all of the steps? Especially “changing your nameservers”?
Care to show us the “snapshot of your settings” you are talking about? -
For starters the name servers don’t seem to be pointing to WordPress.COM. Follow the instructions from @airodyssey

Sorry, I forgot to paste the snapshot. I changed my domain’s name servers like the tutorial said and placed them in the empty boxes on the screenshot. However, doing this made my email address not receive any new emails. I had to delete the DNS to start receiving email again.
