    My WordPress blog is marketwarriorsoftware.wordpress.com. I have a domain mapped to my wordpress blog. I need to move the domain so it points to a different web site. I can not follow the WordPress instructions for doing this. Below of the instructions. I can not find the Domain Administration that is listed in step 2, “Look for Domain Administration and change the password.and change the password” Is there a newer or different set of instructions? If not how do I find Domain Administration?

    If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers. Follow the Update Nameservers instructions below.

    Domain Manager Login
    1.Go to Store → Domains in your blog’s Dashboard.
    2.Look for Domain Administration and change the password.
    3.Copy or write down your Customer Number.
    4.Click the Manage Your Domains link.
    5.Login with your Customer Number and password. If it’s your first time logging in, you will be prompted to create a PIN number.
    You should now be logged in and see a list of your domains.

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

    I’m having the same problem you are and can’t seem to find an updated / proper version for the steps.

    marketwarriorsoftware, your domain is only mapped here. It is registered elsewhere. You’ll need to make these changes through your registrar.

    receitasdasusete, you have no upgrades under your account. If you are referring to a domain registered here, you’ll need to be logged in as the user who owns it.
