You'll need to contact your domain registrar about this.

For now, I have set your primary domain back to http://homeandstuff.wordpress.com/ while you sort this out with your domain registrar.

Once you have recovered the domain, if you can, you can set your primary domain back via the Store -> Domains section of your blog's Dashboard.

I'll send my message to the email address you posted, but I saw a note saying they are on vacation until early next year and that, meanwhile, I can get help in these forums.

First read ? WordPress.COM vs WordPress.ORG

If you are referring to a self-hosted WordPress.ORG install post to http://wordpress.ORG/support/

If and only if you are referring to a free hosted WordPress.COM blog then change your password and send all details to Staff in an email to support@wordpress.com

However, my site has been hijacked and is now a very explicit porn site!!! :( For that reason, I did not include the link to my site in this message. The support team is on vacation until early January.

Is there anything I can do about this to reclaim my site's domain? What action can I take?
