  I registered a DNS (whatsfordinnerdc.com) to use with wordpress.com, unfortunately I was unable to use custom themes with wordpress.com so I signed up for a godaddy hosted wordpress solution. I have tried everything to point my domain through the domain manager to my hosts ip address and nothing is working. Please help!

  I can see http://whatsfordinnerdc.com/ working, as a WordPress.org install, not on WordPress.com. Could it have been a propagation issue?

  It can take domain changes up to 72 hours (though usually much less) to propagate to your ISP. Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your ISP refreshes their DNS cache.
