    Can anyone help me? I bought a domain name and uploaded it to WP. When I type in my link – it does send to my WP page. However, I just made my first WP post and when I went to share the link, it uploaded as my WP blog page name and not my domain. For example

    goodluckjenn.wordpress.com/article

    not

    womanrevived.com/article (womanrevived is the domain)

    Can someone point me in the right direction?

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

    Hi! Sure thing. It looks like you’ve redirected the custom domain to your WordPress address. That won’t work quite the same way as making a domain connection, though, and links within your site won’t have your custom domain.

    You’ll need a paid plan, then you can connect the domain like so:

    https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/

    Then all of your links will work correctly. Hoping this helps!
