I can see that your blog is already enjoying some level of privacy, as I cannot access it! That's a good start. Here's a quick read-up from WP on Privacy Settings:

http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

Depending on the size and computer literacy of your class, it might be wise to leave your blog public, but to disable search engine crawlers - that way your students can access it without signing up for WP, but you won't have strangers showing up.

If it's a small class, or if you have a graduate assistant to send all the invites for you, a fully private blog might be the way to go!

our nameservers need to be set to NS1.WORDPRESS.COM and NS2.WORDPRESS.COM for these DNS records to work. If you have already updated the nameservers you can ignore this message; it will stop appearing soon.

This form allows you to add DNS records for this domain. The standard records that make your blog work are not shown. You can enter DNS records in the format described briefly at the bottom of this page.

If so where are you going to have the email hosted? 123-reg or Google Aps or another place?

Also you will probably need a zone record added by the staff - would you please post the complete URL of the domain names you are mapping - that will help the staff to get things right the first time

Use Name-servers -

DON'T forward anything - that will mess things up - follow the instructions for domain mapping in the link above

So yes, i want my blog here. the chaps at wordpress.org sent me over.
I've clicked on that link, what does this bit mean?

"Your old .wordpress.com address will still work, but we’ll automatically redirect traffic from your old address to your new one. That way, you won’t lose any readers after mapping your domain name."

I don't have an old wordpress.com site. How can i upgrade? I've just got the room4pr.wordpress.com site, do i need that? and upgrade that?

I'm sorry for all the questions, nothing makes any sense to me!

The two domains i have purchased from 123-reg are:
http://www.room4pr.com
http://www.room4pr.co.uk

Assuming you want to have your blog here - if you want to have your blog hosted on 123.reg or another host you need to make friends at WordPress.ORG

You will also need zone records for your domain names - I will flag this for the staff to help you -

Please repeat the two domain names you want to map here to help the staff

I'm new to this and so confused!

Basically I purchased two domains with 123-reg, but their website templates are ugly. I want a wordpress one as I am familiar with it. (I run my personal blog on wordpress). http://www.hannahsnote.com

123-reg aren't been useful saying I just need to 'point' to wordpress and wordpress will tell me what to do. I don't know what pointing is. But i can't find any information from wordpress telling me what to do. I need sort of a step-by-step guide.

I'm meant to ask WordPress which method should I use:
"Web forwarding
DNS - using an A record or a CNAME record
Nameservers"

So if anyone knows what method I should use, or any clues on how to use my pre-bought domain names on wordpress that would be amazing help. I'm not good with technical stuff!

Thank you!

P.S. - my pre-bought domains are room4pr.com and .co.uk
