I am sorry if this has been asked numerous time, I have tried most of the advises here but still have not solve my problem, so here’s the situation;

I have purchased my Domain (www.victortongphotography.com) and hosting plan from WPWebhost, After installing their WordPress software to my domain, I was given an address where it should point me to my wordpress login page but I received an error message that shows “Warning! Domain mapping upgrade for this domain not found. Please log in and go to the Domains Upgrades page of your blog to use this domain.”

I tried to log in and did the Mapping but after the mapping I still get myself back to the old wordpress dashboard without the option for plug ins and theme installations. Please help as I have been trying hard to get this done; my main priority is to have the ability to install themes. Thanks in advance!

P/S: I am a total noob in these..so please bear with me if I am being a total idiot. :)

Cheers,
Victor

You should be pointing your name servers to WPWebhost not WordPress.COM – you should also make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are trying to use.

This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/
