    I am new and not sure if I’m doing this right. I have a portfolio site, but I want to switch my domain to wordpress and create a new portfolio using one of your themes. I have purchased the gridspace theme, and I’ve mapped my current domain to wordpress. But when I go to my domain, it’s still showing my old site and not the new theme. I know I’m missing a step here.

    Hi there!

    It looks like you cancelled your purchase of the Gridspace theme. If you want to use this theme, you’ll need to purchase it.

    And I just visited your domain samanthadaniel.com and was directed to your WordPress.com site. DNS changes usually take several hours to fully take effect (and theoretically can take up to 72 hours). I’d recommend checking back! Can you also try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies?

    Let me know how I can help!
