** Why can't I change name servers? The option doesn't show up in My Domains.
-
I have fully read the support articles about transferring my domain to a new registrar and about changing name servers. Both indicate that I should have options in my My Domains dashboard that I do NOT in fact have.
In the sidebar options I have only “Email” and “Edit DNS”. The same problem is described by another WP member here: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/i-want-to-change-name-servers?replies=8
I recently transferred my site to a self-hosted WP install and I really need to repoint the domain. Please assist. I want to transfer the domain registration to my host and then change the name servers. Thank you very much.
