  I want to transfer the domain ownership of http://www.thrushpoetryjournal.com to another WP user. How do I do that?

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

  Add the other username account to the blog you wish to transfer to them and make them and Admin of the blog
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

  Then you can use this process to transfer the blog > http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

  I went through that – it is not the issue – there is no active blog on WordPress with that domain, it has been re-directed to Weebly. We just want it so that the owner information of the domain name is transferred to the other WP account so they can manage & renew it under their sign on.

  As a side note, when doing the process you recommended, when I, as the domain owner, hover over the address (thrushpoetryjournal) – I only get the “leave blog”, not the “”transfer blog” option. I was the one added as admin to the blog (as I was removed at an earlier date).

  Thanks,
  Walter
