  Hi everyone! I have a domain here but would like to have it transfered or point to a different location outside of WP. How do I do that? Thanks in advance.

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

  I need to know this as well. Seems like a government secret.

  I have asked this question several times in the past. There isn’t anyone from WordPress I can contact directly and yet, this issue remains unresolved – not only for me but for many other people.

  I have a domain I purchased when I built a website on WP years ago. I want to use that domain but not for a website in WP. How can I do this? Or does WordPress keep people’s domains hostage and basically force them to continue using WordPress?!

  Hi there,

  Have you tried searching our support pages? You can point any domain registered here to another host by changing the name servers or setting custom A-records, or you can transfer a domain away completely. You can find instructions for all the different options here:
