  I just canceled a premium upgrade because I don’t understand how to handle the command “Edit your DNS settings”. A year ago, Wheatmark Company established a new domain name for me: MichaelESedgwick.com. I asked how I would transfer my settings from then to WordPress and they gave me a EPP code of TMWS-143-767-699
  I am completely ignorant of website matters and do not understand what I must do to complete the domain mapping regarding DNS settings.
  Is the TMWS-143-767-699 code what I need? How do I use it to edit the DNS settings?
  If you can help me, I will again sign up for a PREMIUM account. Thanks

  Thanks for getting in touch.

  While we register new domains here at WordPress.com, we’re not able to accept incoming transfers of existing domain names. Therefore, we recommend that you keep the name registered at your current registrar. You can use the domain for your site here at WordPress.com by mapping the domain, as explained here:
