  Hi. The social media icons in the top menu aren’t working properly. It links to the right page if your right click and open it in a new tab but it won’t open the page by just clicking on it.

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

  Hi there!

  I just tested clicking on both of your links in your social menu and they worked fine. Can you tell me what happens when you click on the Twitter or Instagram icon?

  I just tried it again and it still isn’t working for me. Nothing happens when I click on them. The only way I can get it to work is by right clicking and opening it in a new tab.

  Can you try clearing your cache and cookies:

  Also, can you try using another browser. It looks like you’re using Safari right now. Can you try Chrome or Firefox?

  Could it have to do with the domain mapping? I have been trying it on my purchased domain… Not the cdttestrun.wordpress.com

  It is actually because of the domain mapping. You’ve got your domain set up incorrectly.

  In order to map your domain correctly, you need to update your name servers to these:

  • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  It looks like your domain is registered with GoDaddy, so you can follow these instructions to do this:

  Please let me know if you still have this problem once your domain is set up correctly.

  Thanks. It worked!

  One more thing tho….

  When I type in my registered domain “www.sitename.ca” it takes me to the website. But then the address at the top says “www.sitename.wordpress.com”. How can I make it stay my purchased domain address and not change to the wordpress one?

  You’ll need to set your primary domain to your custom domain here:

  https://wordpress.com/my-domains

  Here’s some info about doing that:
