  So I purchased a domain name and it works great and redirects to my wordpress blog like a charm. However once it redirects, it displays the name.wordpress.com url in the address bar. I’m fairly sure there is a way of masking it with the domain name, but I am unsure as to how. @_@ any help in this matter?

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

  Did you purchase the Domain Mapping upgrade or just redirect your new domain name at the registrar?

  Oh, I just need to make my new Domain the primary domain. I assumed that since my blog was hosted at the wordpress.com address, I had to make that my primary domain and have the new one redirect to it. Thanks for that link.
