I own my domain yet when I post it goes to the .wordpress.com site

  • Unknown's avatar

    I own my domain yet when I work on my site, it only posts to the .wordpress.com site. It’s so frustrating because I don’t know how to move all of my content and look over to my own domain. I don’t know how this happened. Has this happened to anyone? Can anyone please help? I want my site to go live today! Thanks a lot!

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

    Are you trying to map you custom domain name to a blog here? Are you using some sort of domain forwarding or masking?

    I see:

    http://inspirema.com/
    http://inspirema.wordpress.com/

    Different sites – different content – I don’t see any domain mapping for http://inspirema.com/ but sometimes there is a delay with Domain Helper

    If you want inspirema.com to have the content of inspirema.wordpress.com then you need to use the instructions below

    Yes, this is the problem. I created all new content (the about page is similar) and for some reason, it all posted to the .wordpress.com site. I need it all on the inspirema.com site. It’s a custom domain but I bought it through wordpress. I checked out the map existing page but it says I need to pay to upgrade to remap. I shouldn’t have to pay for something that I already paid wordpress for. Do you know what I mean? Thanks for your reply!!

    And now I realize when I work on the site with just my domain name… it takes me to a link that I chose so many years ago that I tried to delete. This is very frustrating! Is there a number I can call? Or a better blogger site?

    Domain mapping is not domain registration – they are different upgrades – if you want your custom domain name to map to your wordpress.com blog you need domain mapping – yes you need to pay for domain mapping also
