  How can I change which domain my wordpress site uses? Currently we have a church website with http://www.sheldonumc.com, but we have cancelled that website. However, when I try to view the WordPress site that we want to start using, it direct us to the company website that held the previous website. We would like to change our WordPress site to http://www.sheldonumc.org instead, but I can’t get into the Settings because of a Jetpack 3.3 update that I can’t make happen. Can you help?

  Hi there,

  This post sounds like it might be what you’re after: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  As it mentions, if you’re not seeing any changes after 72 hours, then it’s worth clearing the cache – the switch might not happen immediately.

  Hope that helps.
