  I am attempting to change the Nameservers of my wordpress.com registered domain (centreforthearts.com) but the instructions tell me to click ‘Domain Administration’. I see no such option.

  Please advise! At the moment I see no way to switch my domain over to my newly set-up, self-hosted wordpress.org install.

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

  You will not see such an option unless or until you are logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchased upgrades for it.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
  If required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery.

  Once you recover the account you can then follow the process. If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers.
