Mapping the domain syril.no

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m getting “Sorry but syril.no has not been registered yet therefore cannot be mapped.” when trying to map it to syrilno.wordpress.com

    The domain is registered in Norway and are for now set up with a redirect, but I would like to map it to syrilno.wordpress.com.

    I’ve noticed I need help from WordPress staff and are awaiting further notice.

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

    When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one wherein Staff have to add a zone record to make domain mapping possible we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you.

    How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

    After Staff add the zone record you will be able to follow-through.

    re: mapping an existing domain
    WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible.

    Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made, it and the domain mapping purchase here, each and every year.

    Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually and a domain name purchase and domain mapping are included in the Premium upgrade bundle.

    In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com sub-domain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL.

    If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the WordPress.COM blog, and as you own a domain URL already, you can see here for mapping an existing domain. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    It can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.

  • Hi there,

    I’ve added a zone record for your domain, so you should be able to map it now. Please let me know if you still have problems with this.

    Novice here. I own domain perlechampion.com currently parked at godaddy and yesterday upgraded my wordpress blog (perlesink.wordpress.com) so I can use perlechampion.com. here. I inserted my domain where it said map, but nothing appears to have happened. Do I need to do something at godaddy. Any help appreciated. thanks.

  • @perlesink
    You still need to change the domain’s name servers with GoDaddy before it will work. You can see full instructions on this support page @timethief gave:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    If you have any problems with that, please start a new thread and add “modlook” to the tags area. Then we will respond to you there.
