Domain mapping is not working

  1. Paid for domain mapping upgrades. Nameservers has been changed, as asked by WordPress, tree days ago.

    Things are not working!

    http://www.vveweenahof.nl has to show my blog on http://weenahof.wordpress.com.

    I marked weeahof.wordpress as my primary domain.

    Can somebody help?? Thanks in advance!

    The blog I need help with is weenahof.wordpress.com.

  2. Did you have a zone record added for vveweenahof.nl

    When it is all settled you also need to have vveweenahof.nl as your primary domain

  3. Thanks for your reply.

    What's a zone record?

    I had weenahof.wordpress settled as primary domain. I have changed it now.

  4. With vveweenahof.nl as primary adress, both adresses are no longer accessible.

  5. A zone record is needed to make it all work - don't really know what one is but the staff need to add one for you for your domain to work.

    I will flag this for the staff to add a zone record - in the mean time - change primary back to http://weenahof.wordpress.com. until the zone record is added

    zone record needed for vveweenahof.nl

  6. Thanks

  7. You be welcome

  8. vveweenahof.nl is still not accessible. Any idea how long this will take?

  9. @weenahof

    Have you contacted staff directly?

  10. I have manually added a zone record for your domain.

    You should now be able to map it here following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  11. THE website is still not accessible, because it's now forwarding to vveweenahof.wordpress.com. That is not my blog. It has to forward to weenahof.wordpress.com. Can someone fix this, please?

  12. You need to map your domain to weenahof.wordpress.com using the link from @macmanx above -

    If vveweenahof.wordpress.com is not yours there is no way that you can domain map to it - your name servers are set correctly to WordPress.COM but you need to finish the mapping - that is done here not at your Registrar.

  13. I mapped my domain already as discribed in the link from @macmanx.

    This is my site and my blog.

    http://www.vveweenahof.nl
    weenahof.wordpress.com

    @macmanx has made a zone record, but i think he did it wrong, because my site is forwarding to vveweenahof.wordpress.com, which isn't my blog. It has to be forwarded to weenahof.wordpress.com

  14. @weenahof
    Thanks for that information. I have flagged this thread for Staff attention so the correction can be made.

  15. @timethief
    Thanks for doing this. Hope it wil be resolved now soon.

  16. We have no mapping records yet for the domain. You'll need to purchase domain mapping following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  17. I paid for domain mapping for my blog weenahof.wordpress.com on october 14th. In my dashbord it is noticed as 'active, will be renewed at october 14th 2012"

    So, i really don't understand why this is not working for 5 days now.

  18. You paid for a Site Redirect upgrade, not a Domain Mapping upgrade.

    I have canceled and refunded your Site Redirect upgrade.

    Would you please try purchasing it again? Make sure that you choose Domain Mapping this time.

  19. It's working now. Thanks for fixing this.

  20. You're welcome!

  21. Hello Macmanx happiness engine, I am having a similar problem with druidcycles.co.uk, because it shows up at present only as druidcycles.wordpress.com. i am pritty sure, that I need to pay some sort of mapping fee for a year again. could you please be so kind and give me some advise, what kind of steps I need to take? I contacted wordpress staff many times, without any luck. thank you for your happy assistance. ciao thor

  22. Your domain mapping record expired April of this year, please repurchase it by adding the domain via Store -> Domains in your Dashboard.
