  Hi
  I’m in the early stages of setting up a blog at http://www.londonirishstories.wordpress.com. I’ve also purchased the londonirishstories.com domain from 123-reg.co.uk, which I want to map to the blog.

  I’ve gone in to my control panel at 123-reg.co.uk and changed the nameserver info, and the wordpress ones rea coming up on dnsstuff.com. I’ve tried to go through the ‘Manage Domains/Add domain to blog’ steps but I’m just offered the option to buy londonirishstories.com for 10 credits.

  Where am I going wrong!?

  Thanks

  Gary

  You need to buy the Domain Name upgrade for the ten credits, which is ten US dollars. Even if you already have a domain name, the cost applies for connecting your blog to that domain. If you follow those steps, you should get it accomplished.
