    Hi there!

    I see that your domain transfer is still in progress, so changes cannot be made until it is completed.

    Can you go to https://wahdycapital8.wordpress.com and confirm if this is the site you wish to use with the domain? If yes, you’re on the right track.

    After the transfer is completed (you’ll receive an email), all you need to do is set the WordPress.com nameservers on the domain. Here’s how to do this.

    Within 72 hours of doing this, the domain will start loading your WordPress.com site at https://wahdycapital8.wordpress.com. Finally, follow this guide to set wahdycapital.com as the primary address of your site.
