  Hi,

  I deleted my wordpress website from wordpress.com, because I moved my domain name (www.soetzappig.nl) to my own webhosting server. But because of domain mapping the site is still showing files from wordpress.com and not my own server.
  Because I deleted my wordpress site, I’m not able to perform any changes to caching or etc. I have no acces anymore.
  Can you please help delete the redirect and the files from the wordpress site so it displays my own files from my own webserver.

  Thanks and regards,
  Imli de Voogd

  This is happening because you are still using WordPress.com’s nameservers. You have to contact your registrar and help you change the nameservers to your current hosting provider.

  Thanks for the help! I changed the nameservers, but unfortunately it didn’t do the trick. That means I’m still missing something.
  I’m one step closer though.

  It can take a few hours for your domain name servers (DNS) to update fully. You will also likely need to clear your browser’s cache.

  @imlidevoogd: Your domain is now pointing to your self-hosted site. Are you all set now?

  Yes! Yesterday the servers were updated fully and I checked my database so now it’s working! Thanks for all the help!
