  I want to remove my registered domain from my wordpress.com account because I now host it elsewhere (using wordpress.org).

  I need to remove this domain so that wordpress.com will allow me to do a Site Redirect. Currently when I click to do a site redirect it says “that domain is already registered”. What a pain in the ass, huh?

  I don’t see any domain names on your account.

  What was the domain you were referring to?

  Hello happiness crew.

  I had domain mapping for “peakeproductivity.com” and that upgrade has now expired. I was hoping that after it expired I could get the site redirect, but it still says:

  ” A domain mapping already exists for that host. You do not need to buy a site redirect if you already have a domain mapping. “

  Then shows me the list of my domains (peakeproductivity.wordpress.com – primary and peakeproductivty.com – expired domain mapping).

  Thanks,
  Lisa
