  • Unknown's avatar

    I have bought a new domain page that is linked to my word press account and I want to map it to a new wordpress site I have just made but I can’t work out how.

    Please Help me if you can :)

    Dean.

    Yes I spoke with Alecia but my problem was not resolved.

    When I try to map my additional word press domain name (classicrockguitarlessons) to the new wordpress site I am told I cannot because it is already mapped to my current blog (phillipislandguitarlessons.com)

    In the conversation I had with Alecia I was told how to create a new website but not how to move my domain to it.

    Alecia said in our chat that once I set up a new site the wordpress staff can help me move my domain to it – that is exactly what I would like help with now thank you :)

    deanluke Hi there, I am having a problem with something.
    deanluke I have an existing wordpress called phillipislandguitarlessons, and I just bought a new domain called classicrockguitarlessons and I would like to have a seperate wordpress website for both of these domains
    Alecia Hi there!
    deanluke hi :)
    Alecia Let me check your account – one moment please
    Alecia Ok, to have the two domains be on different sites, you need to create a new site here on WordPress.com by following these steps http://en.support.wordpress.com/create-a-blog/#adding-new-site to-an-existing-account
    Alecia Once you do that, we can move one of the domain names over to that new site and you can set it up how you like :)
    deanluke Thank you very much :)
    Alecia You’re Welcome! Have a great day! If you have any additional questions, feel free to chat with us again. :)
