  I’m trying to go from wordpress.com to wordpress.org using GoDaddy hosting. And getting frustrated. I have WordPress loaded into my GoDaddy site with domain playingwithperfect.com On wordpress, it is playingwithperfect.wordpress.com (But I already owned playingwithperfect.com and had it pointed to the domain on the .com blog.) HELP!!! Directions say I need a MySQL export–but I keep seeing that wordpress.com won’t allow me to export that way???

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

  Getting very frustrated. Have been using WordPress for years with no issues. Tried to get a ‘happiness engineer’ but it won’t let me pay???????????

  Have now paid for a ‘Happiness Engineer’ to transfer site for me. Payment went through. NOW WHAT????? Seriously…do I sit and wait to be contacted? No information was requested from me…such as what hosting service I have set up (GoDaddy). My phone number, email, etc???? I’m moving from frustrated…to just plain pissed!!!
