    I am using free account. I am trying to change the name servers, however when I try to click on the domain name it does nothing. Are free users not allowed to change the name servers or add dns records?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    On a free WordPress.com account with a .wordpress.com subdomain, it’s not possible to change the name servers or add DNS records. This kind of functionality is only available when you have a custom domain.

    Could you kindly provide me with more details about what exactly you’re attempting to accomplish? Are you trying to point your .wordpress.com subdomain to another website or something else? Also, I’d love to hear more about the website you’re interested in building. This information will help me guide you better.

    If you’re just starting out with your website, I’d recommend considering our Personal or Premium plans. Both these plans come with the ability to register a custom domain for free for the first year. This will allow you to have a domain that is unique and will give you the flexibility to manage your DNS records.

    The Personal plan is great if you’re looking to remove the ads and get access to premium email support. On the other hand, the Premium plan offers more advanced design options, additional storage, and tools to monetize your site.

    If you’re interested, you can quickly upgrade below.

    Please let me know if you have any more questions or need further clarification. I’m here to help.
