  I have mapped my domain “pillsforprofit.org” from GoDaddy to WP. I have two blogs already: FatherTalkingDog.com and snewton508, but want to launch pillsforprofit.org as my main site. How can I do this…what do I do next?

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

  Hi there,

  If you want to use pillsforprofit.org for your site, you can add another domain mapping to the site: fathertalkingdog.wordpress.com and set pillsforprofit.org as the primary domain by going to Store > My Domains in your Dashboard.

  You will have to update the nameservers to us:

  • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  You can view further instructions here:

  Cheers!

  Hi again,
  I’m working on another WP site hosted with GoDaddy. I’m using the Circumference Lite theme and want to change the banner image of the family that comes with the theme. I’ve uploaded a new banner image, but it doesn’t want to load and the old banner is still there. Suggestions?

  I assume I can change it under the Header customizing area, but although the new image is shown, it doesn’t appear.

  Hi there,

  Please note that WordPress.org and WordPress.com are completely separate entities so I don’t have access to any of your files on GoDaddy. You’ve reached support for the free sites hosted at WordPress.com. Your site at DOMAIN is hosted by USERS_HOST using the free WordPress software available here:

  http://wordpress.org.

  You can find support for your self-hosted WordPress site here:

  http://wordpress.org/support/

  http://codex.wordpress.org/

  If you need professional help for your self-hosted WordPress site, please check out:

  http://jobs.wordpress.net/

  Considering the issue, if may be a good idea to contact the theme developer as well.

  I’m so sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

  Happy New Year!
