  my registrar, wix, gave me a transfer code to transfer my domain here to wordpress and map the existing domain. WordPress is now requiring I change my name servers to wordpress in order for my domain to connect. Wix does not allow you to do this. So what am I to do now? I have already paid wordpress to map my domain but now I can’t use it because wix does not allow me to change the name servers. Please help!

  Hi there,

  I see that you have purchased domain mapping for arlsworld.com. Is this the domain in question?

  When I look at your public registration information, I see that this domain is registered with Network Solutions, not Wix. If this is the case, you’d need to change your name servers at http://www.networksolutions.com/.

  WordPress.com doesn’t accept incoming domain transfers. When you mention a transfer, are you referring to transferring a Wix site/blog to WordPress.com?

  I need some clarification to help you troubleshoot your domain mapping issue. Thanks so much!
