  Dear WP!

  Trying to connect a domain to a wordpress site but when I’m at the step in adding a custom domain that contains åäö (but has been converted) but I receive the error message that the ‘term has been blacklisted’.

  This is the URL I try to add: http://xn--skggbalsam-r5a.se

  Thanks!

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

  Hi there,

  We don’t support internationalized domain names, i.e. names containing special characters like those, so it’s not possible to map that domain to a WordPress.com site:
