  I’m setting up a self-hosted site and am having issues with my having my former wordpress.com blog point to my new wordpress.org site. Due to this issue I am unable to log into my new .org dashboard without being automatically forwarded to the old .com blog.

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

  Hi there,

  Did you just recently point your domain docktohome.com to your new host? If so, it can take up to 72 hours for domain changes like that to take effect. In the meantime, when you visit your domain (or certain pages on the domain) you may be pointed back to WordPress.com — that will stop once the domain changes settles down.

  If this continues to be a problem for you after that, please let me know!

  Hi Rachel,
  I did recently move my domain to a new host so this might be the issue. It moved it over Tuesday night so I will wait another day or so and see if I am still having trouble.

  Many thanks!
