Hi,
I have two blogs. I purchased the domain name http://www.laidbacklarryshealthhut.com from within the blog kathleenhearts.wordpress.com by accident. I meant to purchase it under laidbacklarryshealthhut.wordpress.com, so that it would map to this blog. Can this custom domain be transferred to the correct blog? Thank you

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

I’m sorry but what you need to do is cancel the domain mapping and apply for a refund withing 48 hours of purchase. Then you will need to make the second purchase.

Thank you for getting back so quickly! I am not concerned about a refund at this point. I see that in my dashboard > Settings > Domains it says “Please contact support if you wish to delete a registered domain,” is this the first step? Then do I go to laidbacklarryshealthhut.wordpress.com and add the domain to that blog?

If so, I tried contacting support and have not heard back.

I’m nervous about you canceling or deleting anything. I think it’s best for Staff to hold your hand throughout this process — just in case and I’m glad you are okay with this.
