Moving a wordpress.com blog to GoDaddy.com

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    I first created a blog on WordPress.com (http://tnolin.wordpress.com) and was using it.

    I have now decided to create a WordPress Blog on my own site. I am using GoDaddy and used their quick install feature. When asked to create Admin login; I used tnolin as the username which is the same username here at WordPress.com but a different password than the one I login into at tnolin.wordpress.com

    After successfully creating the Blog on http://tnolin.com, I tried logging into my wp-admin using my acct/pwd created through GoDaddy.com. I was able to enter my dashboard alright showing only 1 post which is the default when creating a new blog. However, every time I try and go to http://tnolin.com/wp-admin/ it directs me to wordpress.com and not able to log in using my acct/pwd combination I created through GoDaddy.com and can only log in to my old blog at tnolin.wordpress.com. Both blogs are completely different but I can not log in to edit my new blog at tnolin.com

    Should I delete my old blog or should I reinstall WordPress using a different account set up?

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

    Sounds like you WordPress.org install is not quite right. Check all of your settings in the database. You can find a lot of useful information in the WordPress.org documentation at codex.wordpress.org. If you need help, head over to the WordPress.org support forums.

    Well did the WordPress.org setup create a second tnolin account for me to log into?
