  Hello WP,

  I just made the switch from WP.com to WordPress.org because I would like to install a custom theme from ThemeForest. Even though I acquired the domain name http://isaiasgarcia.com from WP.com, I’m now hosting it via DreamHost. However, I went back to my dashboard and the PLUGIN bar still doesn’t show. I chose the one-click installation from DreamHost and it said it had also already installed the latest version, WordPress 3.5.1

  Could it be because I only purchased the domain On April 2 and I have to wait 60 days before the domain properly transfers to another host?

  I would really appreciate the help. =)
  Sincerely,
  Isaias

  Have you contacted your web host?

  If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers.

  Thank you timethief!

  Just read the pages, it says I’ll have to wait until after the 60 days.

  Much appreciated,
  Isaias
