  I have a site that I deleted, but I forgot to transfer the domain mapping upgrade to my other site first. Is there a way to transfer this upgrade my other site even though the site that currently has the upgrade is gone?

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

  If raincoaster and I had been paid a dollar for every b,logger who failed to provide an URL for the blog they want help with we would be wealthy by now. ;)

  We provide support here only for WordPress.COM hosted blogs. I’m sorry but we cannot provide accurate answers to any blogger who fails to provide the exact URL starting with http:// for the exact blog they refer to so we can verify where it is hosted. Please do that now.

  If the upgrade was not a domain mapping upgrade then state what any upgrade(s) are for.

  The domain that the upgrade applies to is joshrlangley.com.

  Hi there,

  The domain mapping has been transferred to joshrlangleyportfolio.wordpress.com but please note that the nameservers are not pointing to us:

  • NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  • NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Please take a look at the instructions below for more information:

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  I’ve got the name servers changed now. One other question:

  If I want to have joshrlangleyportfolio.wordpress.com = joshrlangley.com

  and

  joshrlangleydesignblog.wordpress.com = BLOG.joshrlangley.com, can I do this as is, or do I need to purchase domain mapping again?

  Hi Josh,

  Yes. You would need to purchase another domain mapping ($13/year) to set up the subdomain: BLOG.joshrlangley.com. You can read more about this here:
