  Log into your GoDaddy account and change the name servers to:

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

  Here’s GoDaddy’s guide for that: https://www.godaddy.com/help/set-custom-nameservers-for-domains-registered-with-us-12317

  @lauragrandeperiodist – Where are you setting up your email? I don’t see that any of the options listed on that support page ask for an IP number.

  Hi there @lauragrandeperiodista,

  Since you are going through 1&1 to setup your e-mail, I would contact them for assistance.

  Thanks!

  ID number for WordPress page? I’m not sure I understand what they are asking for.

  So, you are wanting to use an e-mail you have with 1&1 for a site you are hosting at WordPress.com?

  If so, you will need to obtain the custom DNS records from 1&1.

  For more information, please visit our support page:

  Let me know if this is not the case. Thanks!
