  Hey guys, I got domain mapping through the dashboard upgrade but have just purchased hosting on Hostazar so I can transfer my blog to monetize etc. I’ve pointed the blog at their servers and also uploaded WP.org without a hitch.

  Anyway, the hosts are asking me for my EEP/Transfer code and I’ve searched and search to no avail.

  Any ideas on how I can get it?

  Thanks guys in advance.

  Probably not something we have here, since I’ve never heard of it. Check the FAQ on transferring your blog.

  Also – if you bought your domain through WP.COM, be aware of the 60 day rule on transfers

  Thanks for the reply, I can’t find anything anywhere and the hosting company are asking for it. :(

  What is the 60 day rule?

  I think the EEP/Transfer thing and the 60 day rule are related, which is why I pointed you to the FAQ IF you purchased your domain through WordPress.COM. You cannot transfer a domain for 60 days after purchase. It all in the FAQ under Domain management

  But you will probably have to export your blog from here and import it there.

  Thanks for the link and help, although nothing fruitful I’m afraid. I’ve exported the old WP.com blog and in the process of FTPing it now…fingers crossed. :)
