  I have followed the instructions at wordpress.com for domain mapping to the letter. That page says that anyone typing in http://www.lovecraftzine.com will be redirected to lovecraftzine.com. HOWEVER, that is not happening. Going to lovecraftzine.com DOES go to my blog, but typing in http://www.lovecraftzine.com results in a page not found error.

  Can someone please help? Thank you.

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

  It redirects fine for me in three different browsers. If you just recently did the domain mapping, it can take anywhere from a few hours to as much as 72 for the domain name change to propagate completely around the internet. Typically it is about 24. Just give it some time, and before checking, always make sure and clear your browser cache as some browsers hang onto cached pages tenaciously and may wrongly pull up the error page it has cached. IE is famous for this. Or is it infamous?
