still can't use WA properly. what am i doing wrong?
So, I've successfully transferred my domain name to WA. (hottubspaceship.com). it took 5 days.
If you go to that website, all my old content is still there. It still thinks it's a WordPress hosted site though.
So today I went into SiteRubix and wrote a new blog in the content part. I published it, and it told me that it was successful. The new blog entry was entitled Episode 10: Escape from behind the Safety glass.
But it didn't show up at my site. I don't know where it went.
I'm lost now. Not sure what to do. I tried to change the DNS settings in the Wordpress domain settings page to Wealthy Affiliate DNS settings, but it gave me an error message.
thoughts?
Thanks!
Brian

When I just checked, your nameserver settings are still pointed at wordpress.com's servers. (see below) How long ago did you get the domain transfered over? You may be experiencing propagation delay if it's been too short a time.
Since you're saying that the domain name is now registered at WA, site support should be able to get your nameserver settings pointed to WA's servers. I'd suggest opening a support ticket to get the problem investigated. (The DNS settings page at wordpress.com shouldn't allow changing DNS settings if the domain is no longer registered there.)
this is the error message I get from Wordpress.
Unable to update nameservers
Maybe it'll fix itself in a day or so
thanks
Since you've transfered the registration to WA, that would be expected -- wordpress.com no longer has anything to do with your site. WA Site Support should be able to change the nameserver settings if that hasn't been done already. Otherwise, it may just take a bit of time for the nameserver settings to propagate.
