  Hi, I’ve already transferred my wordpress.com domain, kinleonn.net, to Bluehost. And I just downloaded wordpress on that host.

  However, the admin panel kinleonn.net/wp-admin still redirects to https://kinleonn.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  How do I change everything to wordpress.org?

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

  Hi there,

  After you make a domain change like that, it can take up to 72 hours for the change to take full effect everywhere. In the meantime, your domain may point back to the old WordPress.com site.

  You don’t need to make any other changes right now — once your domain change takes effect everywhere, you’ll be able to access your Bluehost site’s admin panel at your domain. If you’d like to speed up the process, you can also try flushing your computer’s DNS cache.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
