  I have purchased the domain name http://www.novelteabee.com and accidentally have had it mapped to my old WP blog: bridgetgkearney.wordpress.com. I want my purchased domain to map to a new and separate blog novelteabeeblog.wordpress.com. Is there any way to fix this mistake of mine?

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

  No problem, @novelteabeeblog. You did purchase it under another account, though. Can you log out, log in as that user, then get in touch with us to have it moved to your novelteabeeblog account?

  Once you’re on the account that has an upgrade, you can get in touch directly here:

  Or feel free to just reply to this thread once you’re logged in as the current owner. Thanks!

  Hi! I have logged out and logged in on my original account @kearnebg where I have accidentally mapped my purchased domain http://www.novelteabee.com . I wish to map this domain to my other WP blog account @novelteabeeblog . Thank you! Please let me know what else I need to do to have this mistake of mine fixed! Best Regards.

  Thanks @kearnebg :) This is done. You may need to close and re-open your browser to see the changes. Cheers!

  Oh! @kearnebg, one more thing: the domain still points to GoDaddy. Use these instructions to point it here:

  Log into GoDaddy and click Manage Domains

  Select the domain name you want to use, click the gear icon, and select Manage DNS.

  Click the Settings tab, then under Nameservers, click Manage.

  Under Setup type, select Custom. Click Enter custom nameservers.

  Remove anything that’s there, and replace it with these:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Save the changes, then wait for a few hours for them to take full effect. Cheers!
