  I purchased the domain mapping. I had already purchased the url beliefsoftheheart.com from godaddy but it had never been used.

  I had hoped that the result would be that I could go to http://beliefsoftheheart.com and see my current blog, beliefsoftheheart.wordpress.com

  Instead, if I go to beliefsoftheheart.com it redirects me to the wordpress blog, but the address reads beliefsoftheheart.wordpress.com.

  What have I done wrong? Or did I misunderstand? Does wordpress have the ability to have my url (beliefsoftheheart.com) show in the address box, or will it always add the wordpress.com at the end?

  HELP!!

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

  You just need to set beliefsoftheheart.com as the primary domain on the Upgrades > Domains page.
