I have tried mapping the latter onto the former, but your system keeps saying "Domain name expired, contact support" How can this be resolved please? The mapping of divineheartofgod.org to divineheartofgod.wordpress.com has already been done from Namecheap's side. Now it needs to be done from WordPress' side, so that divineheartofgod.org appears in the url address for my blog hosted with yourselves, instead of divineheartofgod.wordpress.com Thanks in advance.

Alternatively, you can re-purchase it after it expires.

I need to renew the domain mapping, which expires on 9/20. We've got several upgrades, all purchased once upon a time by a user "MJ" who I do not have any contact information for, and who no longer appears as any kind of user on the blog. How can I get ownership of those upgrades transferred to me (or another admin on the blog) and initiate the renewal, ASAP? I'm also working to get the domain name registration renewed with our registrar, as it expires on the same day, and we also don't have that login information. *sigh*
