  Very weird issue – I mapped http://www.particularsplanning.com to http://particularsplanning.wordpress.com and for some reason, the URL is mapping to http://particularplanning.wordpress.com (without the s at the end of particular)

  Not quite sure why. Any ideas?

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

  http://particularsplanning.com/ seems to be going directly to http://particularsplanning.wordpress.com/ for me.

  If you’d like, you can set http://particularsplanning.com/ as your primary domain from Upgrades -> Domains in your Dashboard.

  Still not doing it for me? I wonder if the Internet is still propogating ? Do you know how to force a refresh?

  Yes, try clearing your local resolver cache following this guide: http://www.opendns.com/support/article/209

  Cleared the DNS. I am now getting an error through Dreamhost. I am gonna give it a few hours and then try again. Perhaps the Apache needs to catch up with the changes.

  Well, it can take domain changes up to 72 hours (though usually much less) to propagate to your ISP.

  Unfortunately, we have no control over this as it all depends on how often your ISP refreshes their DNS cache.
