  I just registered/bought a domain name, but by mistake I attached it to my already existing blog, thinking I still can manage it as separate site. Apparently it only redirects from that name to my original blog. Is there any way to change it to separate new blog instead of redirection to an existing account?? Would very much appreciate the help.

  Hi there,

  I’d be happy to help you with this.

  Please let me know the custom domain in question, and which WordPress.com site you wish it to point to, and I will update our records accordingly.

  Thank you!

  The domain is BrainMonologues.com and it should point to this exact adress, as I want new separate blog under this name. At the moment it’s redirecting to sanmusone.me, and it should not.

  Hi there,

  I’d like to assist you, but I’m still unclear which WordPress.com blog you wish to be pointing to BrainMonologues.com.

  If you need to create a new blog, you can add one to your account by following the instructions below:

  Once you have your new blog, I can help you add your domain and mapping to that blog.

  ok, right, I’m sorry! I thought it was created already…sorry!

  BrainMonologues.com should link to brainmonologues.wordpress.com.

  I hope now it’s clear and won’t be a problem.

  Thank you so much for the help!

  Hi there,

  Great! I’ve moved your custom domain brainmonologues.com to your new WordPress.com blog, and set it to be the primary domain. Please allow up to 72 hours for the domain records to update across the internet so the domain functions properly.

  In the meantime, you can access your blog directly at https://brainmonologues.wordpress.com/wp-admin/ if you wish to add content now.
