Tyring to use photcrati, change from wordpress.com to .org
-
Help!
I just bought the photocrati package so I can upload themes to my already existing wordpress site. I couldn’t find the option to ‘upload’, simply manage my themes. It was then I realised I had a .com account, not .org.
So THEN i went onto bluehosting to buy web hosting space for my domain name, which was bought through 123-reg. I then followed the instructions to download wordpress and get started.
It then gave me a new username and log in for wordpress so I could get started on my new site. But this isn’t working!
I am still logging into my old .com site, and I am totally confused as to what to do.
Do I need to delete my old wordpress.com site and lose everything I have done? Can I not simply move it to a .org account? I have found help topics on this, and tried exporting and importing XLS files but I dont really have a clue what I am doing and it isnt working.
Where do I begin? And have I just wasted money buying a web server as well as a domain name?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’m answering in the hopes to help you get started, but with a self-hosted blog, you really need to seek help over at http://WordPress.org/Support
The new username and log in are most likely for your new webhosting. If that is not working, you will have to contact bluehost.
If you have set up the WordPress software on your new site and are having trouble importing the XLS file you exported from your WordPress.com site to your new site, you should seek help over at the support forums for WordPress.org and you may be able to ask bluehost for assistance as well.
We really don’t run the same set up here on WordPress.com and therefore are not really in a position to help you out much. Sorry and good luck!
