Domain Mapping expired…are my blog files gone?
-
I had a blog (sacredmuse.us) mapped to wordpress…I think the 1 year mapping has expired. I never received a warning notice! Tried going to my blog, but there are no files there!!! ARE MY FILES GONE FOR GOOD? Will simply upgrading to reactivate the mapping restore everything?!
Is this really a mapping issue or something else?!

You did not post a link to the base WordPress.COM blog – but if you are really hosted on WordPress.COM then your files are safe and you need to fix the Domain Mapping – should be able to do that at Dashboard >> Stores >> then maybe My Upgrades or something like that – also double check your domain name and make sure your registration is current.

All the files at WP.com blogs have URLs that are independent of domain mapping, if you look closely. I am the first person on Wp.com to have had a custom domain name, and all my files have the format http://raincoaster.files.wordpress.com/year/month/title.jpgOrOtherFileextension

Auxclass–it didn’t show my blog url on the drop down menu.
My blog is: http://www.sacredmuse.usBut this is the message that comes up when you go to that url:
Warning! Domain mapping upgrade for this domain not found. Please log in and go to the Domains Upgrades page of your blog to use this domain.We didn’t receive any warning that this was going to happen if it DID expire. Can you tell just by looking at it if this is the problem?
Thanks!

There was some sort of outage in November that meant many people didn’t receive their notifications. But that doesn’t mean you can’t log in and buy the upgrade again. Log in not from your blog but from http://wordpress.com and see if you can get to the dashboard that way.
