  Have a domain but word press will not let me transfer it until June 8 and they’re saying that I can map it but when I mapped it it has word press.com in it and I don’t want to have that starting up.
  Also I am wanting to use money flow template for WordPress how do I get that and start setting that up?

  Hi there,

  If it’s a newly registered domain, then you need to wait for 60 days to transfer it. This 60-day lock is required by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and cannot be waived. You can read more about that here:

  So, for the time being you can keep your domain with your current registrar and map it here. Please follow the instructions below to map your domain. When mapping a domain, the .wordpress.com will be hidden.

  As for the theme, you’re referring to (Money Flow), you’ll need to upgrade to the Business or eCommerce plan to be able to install it. Only those two plans allow the use of third-party themes.

  If you have any other questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help.
