Thanks! I am using godaddy for the domain name- once i get routing thru wordpress, will my problems disappear? godaddy interface is not great to use so hopfully i don't have to mess with it!

Hey there,

You're currently embedding your WordPress.com blog via an iframe. Due to the way many Internet browsers handle iframes, embedded content like YouTube videos won't load to prevent potential security problems.

The best way to use a domain name with your WordPress.com blog is to use domain mapping--this will "point" your domain directly at your blog; no iframe necessary.

Please let me know if I can be of any further help.

Best,
P.

I am confused!

On my wordpress address my music links on the song page work fine.
http://cosmicmandala.wordpress.com/songs-by-sign/

I routed my address is http://www.compassionateastrology.com
The links on the song page don't work!

Other links on the page seem to work-- What is the problem?
