On this page, I see that you DO have a domain mapping for bramijegan.com :

https://bramijegan.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

It is not yet active, however. If you activate it by selecting it and clicking on "Update Primary Domain", then anyone who visits http://www.bramijegan.wordpress.com/ will be sent to the self-hosted site at bramijegan.com.

That mapping expires on August 23rd, 2013 and will not be automatically renewed. You will need to go back to your dashboard if you continue to want your WordPress.com site to point to your self-hosted site.

If you have any questions about this, please let me know!

I go to Redirect Your Site and then type bramijegan.com

This is the message I get - A domain mapping already exists for that host. You do not need to buy a site redirect if you already have a domain mapping.

But I don't have that domain mapping - so not sure what that means.

You want bramjegan.com to show your wordpress site or you want http://www.bramijegan.wordpress.com to go to your site bramijegan.com?

For the first you need domain mapping, for the second you need domain forwarding.

what exactly is the error message?

It looks like auxclass targeted your issue correctly: the domain I see associated with your account is guardianofcanarius.com.

@nikkiattree,

I see that the nameservers still need to updated on your domain. To do this, you'll need to log into your domain registrar (easyspace) and update your nameservers to NS1.WORDPRESS.com, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM, and NS3.WORDPRESS.COM. They are sometimes called domain servers, if that's any help.

Once you take care of that, you should be all set!

Cheers!

You seem to have a spelling issue with the domain names you are asking about - one is mapped correctly and the other has no domain mapping

http://guardianofcenarius.com/ - goes to a strange page
http://guardianofcanarius.com/ - loads to a WordPress.COM blog fine

Did you try and purchase domain mapping for http://guardianofcenarius.com/? Were you charged for it?

What do you see at Dashboard >> Store >> My Upgrades?

When you type http://guardianofcenarius.com/

it redirects to https://ssl0.ovh.net/fr/

can you help me? its been 4 days and NO help. If you can not help let me know so I can get a refund.

At this point I just want a refund and to be done with wordpress. Since email help is not working since I have sent multiple messages, maybe you can help.

You need to change the name servers at your registrar - don't do a redirect - see below for some more info

http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/#instructions-for-mapping-an-existing-domain

We require that your name server configuration include only the following servers or their numeric equivalents:

NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

Your name servers are as follows:

NS1.NAMECITY.COM
NS2.NAMECITY.COM

I am able to see your site at http://guardianofcanarius.com/ (your underlying WordPress URL is guardianofcanarius.wordpress.com, btw - the .wordpress.com part is always after the part you specified!)

It can take up to 72 hours for the domain to propagate across the web, so you may have been caught in that window.

Cheers!

I see your WordPress.com site when I visit burtonleonard.org.uk. If you're not able to see it, you may need to clear your cache:

That is correct; you can purchase domains that end in the .fr extension elsewhere and then map them to your WordPress.com blog. You can also purchase the .com domain through your existing WordPress.com blog and it will automatically map when you agree to the charge - you won't have to update your nameservers!

Your $ 13. is for domain mapping only - your name ruralurbain.fr CAN'T be registered at WordPress.COM (they can't register a .fr name - they can map it to your blog here) - I did a whois and I am not sure that ruralurbain.fr has been registered - you need to register the domain name with a Registrar that will accept a .fr name.

There are two things you need. the mapping is $13. the actual domain name is a further cost.

Although I am also having similar problems - my blog is totally inaccessible and it does seem that there is a problem. But since wordpress run the DNS I'm a bit stuffed.

If any admin come past burtonleonard.org.uk doesnt seem to be available.
