  My domain registrar hetzner.co.za cant (or wont) allow nameserver changes to point my domain yogapeople.co.za to my wordpress.com blog. They want me to change the ip address on the Hetzner side to the wordpress.com ip address. Can you provide the server ip address that I should use?
  Thank you

  You can go to Store > Domains on your blog’s dashboard and follow the steps there.

  Also, you may want to review the following guide before going through the process.

  Yes that all seems simple enough and I have read the documentation. My domain registrar will not allow changes to the nameserver. Maybe it has to do with co.za. They want me to enter the ip address of my wordpress.com blog on their server.

  What is the ip address of my blog?

  I added a new DNS Zone record for your domain. This change may take a little while to be fully effective. Could you give it some time then try updating the name servers again?
