  I paid for domain mapping and expected to see my URL as www. mansionforme.com. It still has WordPress included in the name. Can you please clarify?

  Thanks
  Blog url: http://mansionforme.wordpress.com/

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

  It takes up to 72 hours to update a domain name. Just wait it out.

  mansionforme.com – does not seem to be registered nor have any domain mapping for it

  there are two parts that need to be done – register (purchase) a domain name then map it to your blog

  were you charged? if so how much?

  I will flag this for the staff to help you

  I paid $99 for the domain name and upgrade.

  I was able to log out and log in again, edit my home page and my About Me page. I am unclear why I would be able to see it and edit text if it is not registered. Please advise. Tks

  You always edit the base blog in you dashboard – you don’t see the mapped domain name in the URL of your dashboard – http://mansionforme.wordpress.com/

  One of the staff will help sort it out – they can look at your account – I can’t – I am just a volunteer that helps here from time to time

  There is no bundle upgrade purchased under your account. Could you please try to purchase it again at the ‘Store’ page in your blog’s dashboard?

  Sorry for the inconvenience.
