  Yesterday, I change the nameservers on one of my domains to NS1/2/3/WORDPRESS.COM. Two questions: How does WordPress know which subdomain to direct requests to? 2) the domain in question (steamteam.com) now isn’t resolving. Is this merely a propagation issue, or is there another step I need to take?

  Thanks in advance!

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

  Might have something about no domain mapping – that is what tells WordPress.COM what your name and blog match with

  Thanks, auxclass. That’s a huge help, although I’ve decided to go a different way and transfer the blog to another server. Be watching for another desperate post seeking help!

  BTW, any gotchas I need to be aware of doing the transfer?
