  Hello!

  I would like to redirect http://druckstelle.wordpress.com (german) to my new domain http://druckstelle-blog.de. But before I will activate the redirect function with costs I asked in the german forum if I could take my followers and the likes to the new one. They told me to contact you. Is it possible? Should I first activate the redirect? And what to do after that?

  Thanks a lot!

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

  Likes cannot be transferred but blog stats and followers can be. Provided you install and activate the Jetpack plugin http://jetpack.me Staff can transfer these for you. Please do that now as I tagged this thread for their attention.

  Thank you so much! Five seconds ago I activated the redirection. So I hope it will work… Is there any other chance to take the wp-likes with me or are they really lost forever? I fear the worst. ;)

  Thanks!!!

  Hi,

  Your followers and stats have been migrated over. As timethief stated, Likes cannot be transferred.

  Have a great weekend and let us know if you need anything else!
