  I don’t see a Renew button for domain name thelastcivilright.org in the store, or upgrade anywhere to pay the $13.

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

  Hi there,
  So are you logged in as the Admin who registered the blog in question or not?

  In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from. If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog then you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchase an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog.

  See here for mapping an existing domain that you already own http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades is where you do the primary blog set up knowing it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.

  Thank you, I will do that. I wasn’t log in as that admin at the time.
