Domain redirecting to .COM blog after successful setup.

    Yesterday I moved my domain hindizen.com to GoDaddy and successfully setup my self-hosted blog. Now I find that I am being logged out randomly and the blog is opening at WordPress.COM

    Clearing the cache did help twice but the problem persists. Please suggest a solution to the problem.

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

    Hi there,

    We provide support only for WordPress.COM hosted blogs and that site is not one of them. It is a WordPress.ORG software install and you are posting to the wrong support forum.

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

    WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

    I know that the issue pertains to .ORG blogs but my domain keeps pointing back to my .COM blog even after I’ve moved it out. It’s still visible as my primary blog under ‘My Domains’. I tried to make my …wordpdess.com my primary blog but it doesn’t help.

    I posted it first at .ORG support forum but found that my thread was removed. I’m here at .COM for 8 years and know you guys will help. It’s frustrating working at my self-hosted blog and getting back to .COM blog at random.

    In my .COM dashboard my domain hindizen.com is showing its expiry as April 29, 2016 although I’ve transferred it to GoDaddy. It’s been registered with GoDaddy for two years upto April, 2017.

    (To WordPress staff) If deleting it from my .COM account help, please delete it. Site redirect isn’t allows due to domain mapping enabled with this domain.

    my domain keeps pointing back to my .COM blog even after I’ve moved it out.

    When I visit http://hindizen.com/ I see the self hosted site. Do you still see the old site from the front end as well?

    It’s still visible as my primary blog under ‘My Domains’. I tried to make my …wordpdess.com my primary blog but it doesn’t help.

    This is a separate issue. You have the new self hosted site connected to Jetpack, so it will show up in your list of sites on WordPress.com. You will be able to see your stats and manage some Jetpack features from there. If you click the “WP Admin” link from your my sites page, you should go to the dashboard for the new site. If that’s not what is happening, let me know.
