  I want to remove a domain from one blog and map it to my main blog. I bought the domain through wordpress, and then I opened a blog to try a new theme. Now I don’t want it!
  Can I have it so BOTH domain names, JaneWeissLCSW.com and CounselingTidBits.com, lead to my first blog?
  I’m afraid to make a mistake! Counselingtidbits.com now takes me to counselingtidbits.wordpress.com. From what I’ve read. if I cancel the site, I lose the domain name rights, too!
  Please help.
  Thanks!

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

  Hi janelcsw,

  I’ve tagged this topic for a Staff follow-up! They’ll be able to adjust your domain mapping settings for you.

  Yes, they’ll reply to this topic stating what they’ve done, or if they need confirmation, ask you for it.

  So far, no contact. :(
  But I appreciate your attention to the issue. I’ll re- try if I don’t hear by Monday.
  Thanks again

  Most Staff don’t work on weekends, so it’s unlikely you’ll see a reply from them until Monday.

  It’s also likely that they go through topics according to their last reply time, so newer topics get attended to last. It wouldn’t be wise to reply to this topic any further.

  Have a good weekend!

  Hi Jane,

  I do indeed need confirmation of what you’d like to have happen.

  Could you please specify which domains you would like to end up on which blog?

  For example:

  I would like mightyprettyphotos.com to be moved to mightypretty.wordpress.com
  Also, please move amightywp.com to amightywp.wordpress.com
  etc . . .

  If any of these domain/blog combinations are in different accounts there may be some additional steps, just FYI.

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Hi!
  Yes. When someone types in either of my purchased domains:
  JaneWeissLCSW.com, or
  CounselingTidBits.com
  I want them to be mapped to the blog:
  Counseling TidBits
  and NOT to
  Counseling Tidbits2.
  Is that clear?
  Thanks
  JaneW

  Hi Jane,

  I was able to sort it out, thanks.

  I have moved the domain over and now both domains pull up the site http://janeweisslcsw.wordpress.com.

  If you would like to change the primary domain name (the name which stays in the address bar when either domain is visited), you can do so by following the instructions right here:
