  Hello,

  I am having a little trouble with a site that I manage: http://www.acculturated.com.

  Sometimes, when I go to read a post by clicking on the title or ”Continue reading,” the content all loads as it should, but the URL does not change. No matter what you click on it still shows http://www.acculturated,com. This is a problem for visitors who may want to link back to the specific post.

  I’ve noticed that you can navigate around the site just as well using http://acculturated.wordpress.com and the URLs all display properly as you move from one post to another.

  Did we do something wrong when we mapped our custom domain? Thanks!

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

  You don’t have domain mapping on your blog -you are doing something strange at Godaddy with your domain name so you need to get help from Godaddy or map your domain using these instructions:

  As auxclass has pointed out you’re forwarding and masking the domain to your blog and that will not work as there’s no support for HTTP HEAD requests (500). You need to purchase the domain mapping upgrade and map it properly:
