Domain Transfer from WP Admin
-
Hello,
I can’t find proper support for my dad’s website so I’m sending it through my own account.
I am trying to transfer his domain to Wix. I saw this help article (https://wordpress.com/support/domains/transfer-domain-registration/) but I don’t see any ‘Upgrades’ tab when I log in.
After going through your whole support website, I finally realized that he doesn’t have a wordpress.com account. When I log in for him, this is the URL I use:
https://www.franklinautorepair.ca/wp-login.php
What is the difference of wp-admin vs wordpress? How can I transfer my domain? Thanks.
Self-declared URL: https://www.franklinautorepair.ca/

WP.com: UnknownThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
You’re correct. Neither the domain nor the site is hosted with us at WordPress.com. It uses WordPress.org and is hosted by a different hosting company.
There are some differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. If you aren’t sure about them, please check the following page that explains it: WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org.
For help with transferring the domain registration, you need to contact the domain registrar. Looking at the domain’s WHOIS records, I see it might be registered with Rebel.ca. I’d suggest contacting them first to see if they can help or point you in the right direction.
Hope that helps!
