  I’m moving my content over to wordpress.org and have installed WP in GoDaddy, but because of the URL forwarding, I can’t login to the .org site. It just goes to the .com site. May I have the bondorella.com removed, and keep the bondorella.wordpress.com up while I rebuild the site in .org?

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

  Oh… and I did try changing the nameservers, but when I added them into WordPress DNS management, I got this error message:

  We can’t save these records because they don’t look right to us. Check the errors below. Please contact support if you are unable to resolve the problem.

  1. This does not match any of the DNS record formats.

  2. This does not match any of the DNS record formats.

  bondorella.com is not registered at WordPress.com, you were just using the Domain Mapping upgrade to use it with your WordPress.com site. So you will need to log into your domain registrar and set the nameservers there to point to your new webhost. You will not be able to set nameservers on WordPress.com. This needs to be done at your domain registrar.

  I had done that, but I don’t think I gave it enough time to reset. Patience, grasshopper….

  Many thanks for your response!
