Domain Name is still showing up in list of "My Domains"
-
I transferred the domain name laurengoesexplorin.com to GoDaddy because I am moving to self-hosted WordPress. The transfer has been completed. However, it is still showing up in the list of “My Domains” which is messing with my redirects and preventing me from using the domain how I would like. How can I remove it from the list of “My Domains” for this blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I just saw that they added the blog I am referencing to the bottom of this post and would like to clarify – please look at wallflowerllc.wordpress.com for my old blog.
My goal would be to have all of my other wordpress.com blog domains redirect to laurengoesexplorin.com (using on new self-hosted site) – however when I do this in WordPress.com it creates confusion and ends up redirecting to my old blog. I think the solution is just removing “laurengoesexplorin.com” as a domain for my old blog, so please let me know how I can do that :)

Hey Lauren!
Please see below:

The domain will still show up on your My Domains page here since you purchased the Site Redirect upgrade:
https://laurensalisbury.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains
However, the redirect is working correctly on my side. Can you let me know if it’s working correctly for you as well?

The only way that laurengoesexplorin.com is connected to your WordPress.com account right now is through the site redirect upgrade so there really isn’t anything else to remove. In order to redirect all of your WordPress.com sites to the laurengoesexplorin.com address, you will need to purchase the Site Redirect for each site.
So, for example, if you wanted wallflowerinc.wordpress.com to redirect to laurengoesexplorin.com, you would need to purchase the redirect here:
https://wallflowerllc.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php
The difficult part is that this address (wallflowerinc.wordpress.com) is already redirecting to laurensalisbury.me, which looks identical to laurengoesexplorin.com so it’s a bit confusing.
Going forward, can you let me know what domain (either laurensalisbury.me or laurengoesexplorin.com) you’re trying to make your permanent one-stop shop?

Thank you – I see that it’s removed from the list now, maybe I just wasn’t being patient enough :)

Great! Perhaps it just took some time to update. Is there anything else I could help with or help to clarify?
