  I bought domain mapping for the domain davebriggs.org but whilst logged into the wrong blog dashboard!

  I wanted it mapped to davebriggs.wordpress.com but instead bought it for livingwithoutsoftware.wordpress.com

  I transferred it to the right blog, and then deleted livingwithoutsoftware as I didn’t want it anymore. However davebriggs.org still resolves to http://livingwithoutsoftware.wordpress.com/

  Any ideas?

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

  Hi there!

  I just visited davebriggs.org and was directed to your WordPress.com website davebriggs.wordpress.com.

  Domain changes usually take several hours to fully take effect (and theoretically can take up to 72 hours). I’d recommend checking back in a few more hours. You can also try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies. Instructions can be found here:

  If it’s still not working 24 hours from now, simply reply back and let me know. I’m happy to investigate further.

  Hey Dave, I remapped your site, so davebriggs.wordpress.com and davebriggs.com map properly.

  However, in doing that, davebriggs.com became your primary domain for that WordPress.com site. I noticed you originally had another domain, da.vebrig.gs/, listed as primary.

  If you want to make any changes to that mapping, please click Store → My Domains. Choose whichever domain to which you want all others to map.

  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much and happy blogging!
