  Hi there!

  Are you the owner of this domain? This error could occur if you don’t be the owner of the domain, in this case only the owner will be able to map.

  Regards.

  Hi ;)! I am the owner of the domain…

  I have changed the DNS-adress to:
  ns1.wordpress.com
  ns2.wordpress.com
  ns3.wordpress.com

  I have talked to the domainhosting site and they insist that everything works as it should…

  I have waited 24 hours, after i changed the DNS but when i try to connect it to my site it still says “This domain cannot currently be mapped.” without any other explanation! I really hope you can help me as this is terribly frustrating!

  Hi there @dpetti!

  I’ve made an access on your site at http://www.fleetwoodrestoration.com and everything is ok, your site is correctly mapped to WordPress.com and working like a charm.

  Regards.

  Thank you @danielancines. I worked on it for hours yesterday and finally figured out the issue. I needed to log in under the owner’s email address instead of my own. I believe I also needed to upgrade from the free plan to the premium plan, as that was the only way it would evidently work. Appreciate you weighing in!

  We have a similar issue. Was able to pay wordpress to map one domain and get an error for the other This domain cannot currently be mapped.

  Hi,

  I had this domain (www.young-masters.co.uk) mapped to another wordpress webite (the old one: https://youngmastersartprize.wordpress.com/) – I cancelled that mapping in order to release it and map it to my new version of the website (the new one: https://youngmastersartprize2017.wordpress.com/)

  When trying to upgrade the mapping on the new one I get this error: This domain cannot currently be mapped.

  I’ve made all changes on the server, cleaning the old DNS records and not adding the new wordpress ones yet. Still, wordpress hasn’t gained access to the url.

  Can you please advise, this is a rather pressing issue. Maybe there’s something that still needs setting-up?

  Thank you so much.

  I had this issue as well. Like @roncacace said. I upgraded from free to premium and logged in as the primary account holder instead of as an appointed admin and it was resolved. Good luck.
