  I cannot manage my domains. I am trying to accomplish the task in this help-guide:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/

  But everytime I go to my Domains Menu, there is no link to “Manage my domains”

  Please help!

  Thanks

  I reviewed your alexandergreenwood account and I found that you have a domain mapping upgrade for mustachiohunter.com here at WordPress.com, not a domain registration. You should go to your domain registrar, the company where you purchased the domain, and they will provide you with domain management options.

  Note that if you are just trying to add DNS records such as MX records or a CNAME record, then you can use the Edit DNS feature on the Store → Domains → Edit DNS to add records. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/

  What if I didn’t register with a 3rd party, but just registered via the WordPress mapping option?

  I want to have my blog hosted by Dreamhost, and not wordpress. So I’m trying to enter my DreamHost website name into the WordPress domain, so its’ properly re-directed.

  (I am trying to convert from WordPress.com to WordPress.org)

  I already have Dreamhost as my host. Just trying to transfer my domain to Dreamhost, but I am unclear who my domain name is registered with.

  Your domain is definitely not registered through us, just mapped. Do you remember who you paid to register the domain in the first place?
