Need IP Address
-
I need to set up an A-record with my domain provider, and thus need an IP address to point to. The page here (http://en.support.wordpress.com/ip-addresses/) says I should contact support.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The best way to map a domain to a WordPress.com blog is to set your domain’s nameservers to the following values:
NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
NS3.WORDPRESS.COMHowever, if your registrar requires that you create A records, please note that our IPs change over time. Because of this, your domain might stop working at some point in the future. If that happens, please get in touch with us to find out the most current IPs and then update your A records accordingly.
If you still want to go ahead and map your domain using A records, please be sure to create at least two, pointing to two different IPs from the list below:
76.74.254.123
192.0.78.16
66.155.9.238
192.0.81.250
66.155.11.238
76.74.254.120
192.0.80.250

Thanks! I don’t think my registrar allows me to create two A records… Will that be a problem?

Actually, I do have another question. I have created the A records with my registrar, but the domain does not appear mapped. Do I need to do something else on the WordPress end? Also, when I visit aboutproctorcreek.wordpress.com I get the message “Warning! Domain mapping upgrade for this domain not found. Please log in and go to the Domains Upgrades page of your blog to use this domain.”

I am seeing http://aboutproctorcreek.info/ point correctly to your WordPress.com site.
It can take 24-48 hours for domain/DNS changes to propagate throughout the internet. It typically happens faster than that, but it really depends on your ISPs update frequency. If you are still not seeing the correct site appear after 48 hours has elapsed, please contact me again.
Also, do let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
