  I upgraded and am using a previous domain for my wordpress site but when i go to that address I am still just seeing the old site not the wordpress site. Do I have to delete the old site info somehow?

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

  Hello there!

  Your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers. You’ll need to update the name servers with your domain registrar. This article explains how:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  The name servers for WordPress.com are:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM

  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  If you’re not sure how to change them, please contact your registrar for assistance.

  Once you have updated the name servers, it may take up to 48 hours for the domain to be pointed to your WordPress.com site.

  You don’t have to delete your old site to map your domain to your WordPress.com site.

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
