  • Hi –

    Well, you’ve already got 1 free site added to the account. That is solfjelletsjakk.wordpress.com.

    Is that the one you are looking to use, or do you want to add another?

    In order to register a custom domain, contact information is required, that is a regulation that we can’t over ride.

    Each member can simply follow the site through their WordPress.com user account. The account could serve as their profile.

    Otherwise, you’d need a custom domain and business plan in order to set up a true membership site.

    Just to clarify, you don’t need a phone number for http://solfjelletsjakk.wordpress.com/ – that site is already yours and you’re welcome to edit it as you please. The only exception is you’ll need to verify your account, but if you haven’t done so already, that can be done via email!

    Yes, for removing the “.wordpress” part of the address (therefore purchasing a custom domain), you would need an active phone number. I understand that might be frustrating, and whilst that has to be the case, I wish you the best in figuring a solution.

    Let us know if you have any further questions or issues. :)

  • Hi there,

    To add a custom domain you need a phone number, yes, as @torres126 also said above.

    When you register a domain you are required to submit detailed contact information to your domain provider, who then submits that info to the registry controlling the domain in question. It’s impossible for us to register a domain for you without that information, and providing false information can lead to a domain being suspended. This is not a requirement from WordPress.com, but is a requirement no matter where you buy a domain.

    You can find more information on this requirement here:

    I’m afraid there is quite literally no way around this.
