  I want to change the name that people see when they click on the wordpress site. It says it is already taken? Can I just use modeldietdocumentary.com I purchased through namecheap? When I click it says I have to put in ns1.wordpress.com, i’m confused, help!

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

  Hey again!

  I answered your other inquiry in the thread below:

  I am glad that you were able to purchase the custom domain name because as I mentioned in the other thread, the deleted WordPress domain name is no longer accessible. You can surely map your custom domain name to your blog. The following support link will provide you the necessary steps to do so:
