  Hi WordPress,

  Greeting!

  I have recently upgraded my blog sqlship.wordpress.com with domain dbprox.com, due to limitation i have to cancel the upgrade leaving only the domain name . Now the problem is when i try to browse http://www.dbprox.com it is still diverting to sqlship.wordpress.com. As per wordpress support person , it should go in next 48 hours, its been more than that and the issue is still there.

  Please look into the issue.

  Regards
  Sufian

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

  Hi Sufian,

  I checked your domain dbprox.com and it is successfully pointed to another web host now. (It can take some time for domain changes like that to take effect, especially on a computer you used to visit the domain before the change.) If you have any more trouble with it, please let me know.

  I am really not sure why the domain is getting redirected to sqlship.wordpress.com from my laptop… i have cleared the history , cached objects but still its pointing to my blog. :(

  Hi Sufian,

  When did you last make changes to your domain’s name servers or DNS? It can take up to 72 hours for those changes to take effect — your domain’s settings are saved on your computer and by your internet service provider, which is why it takes time for them to be updated so you can see the change.

  Hi,
  1) I have a domain called http://www.nothingcluelesslost.com
  2) I also have a free blog on wordpress.com called http://www.nothing-clueless-lost.com
  I would like to point nothingcluelesslost.com to my wordpress blog
  How do I go about it.

  Many thanks,
  Rolf
