  Hello!

  Help – I’m in big trouble! I just created my own blog which was up until a couple of minutes ago available under the URL: https://besserdatenbesserlieben.wordpress.com/
  then I bought an upgrade so that I could remap a domain which I already owned to my blog. The domain is called: http://www.besserdatenbesserlieben.de
  But now the reversed thing happend: The blog is no longer available, you cannot see it anymore but are redirected to “my old site”. Also I get 404s when trying to get from my dashboard into a site preview.

  What to do?

  Thanks, Anna

  Hi there, your domain besserdatenbesserlieben.de is still pointing to your old host. In order to complete the mapping to your WordPress.com site, you’ll need to log into your domain registration control panel and update the name servers to:

  ns1.wordpress.com
  ns2.wordpress.com
  ns3.wordpress.com

  Please be sure to first read our guide to mapping an existing domain – especially the heads-up about any email accounts you may have on the domain.

  Your WordPress.com dashboard is always available here:

  https://besserdatenbesserlieben.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Also I get 404s when trying to get from my dashboard into a site preview.
