  I registered a new domain name with godaddy.com. I wanted to use it with a new wordpress.com blog so I added it to domains in wordpress. I went to dns detail at godaddy and updated the dns to NS1.WORDPRESS.COM and 2 and 3. But when I go back to wordpress and click the new domain it takes me to a godaddy info page.

  I’m really not sure what to do next or what to correct? Help please and thanks!

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

  Thanks! – Actually ya – it was 3rd itme which was “time”! After an hour or so it transferred.

  Now however I’m struggling on how to get the correct “name” in the drop down list of my blogs. I want it to read “adelle” but it reads “my blog” and I can’t see where to change that!?

  More help please then I’ll be on my way!
