Hi, many thanks for getting back to me. I set up my WordPress blog a few years ago but I now need a website not a blog. I do not want messages appearing. So I tried to take the blog function off my WordPress site but could not do it. I then created a new website with another organisation but I cannot use the name I want to use (thrivemicrofinance .com) because that name is already used or attached to my WordPress blog.
I would like to close my WordPress account in its entirety and release the thrive name so that I can attach to the new website.

Many thanks

Henry Bartram

You already own dannayford.wordpress.com. Are you perhaps referring to a different domain name?

I have had my blog for some years so I think it probably should be pinged by now. I want a blog portal to list my blog and I have to add it to a "ping list" which, if I get this right, wordpress no longer allows?

It might be that you're not using the correct name servers. Please contact GoDaddy and request the appropriate name server records.

To point the domain you registered at WordPress.com to another server (hosting service), please follow the instructions here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/change-name-servers/#changing-domain-name-servers

Hope this helps - let us know if you have any more questions!

It seems that the Pinterest images do not exist anymore. Best is to contact Pinterest Support to discuss this issue.

Thank you.

The sharing and like button can be shown on the front page itself. You can follow the steps in this guide on how to do this: http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#customizing-sharing-settings

Commenting is only available through the individual post page, which can reached by clicking on the 'bubble' icon or the post title.

I'm sorry, but themes can't be uploaded to WordPress.com. That's a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org.

You may use any of the available themes we have under Appearance > Themes in your dashboard, and you may want to look into purchasing the Custom Design Upgrade to customize one of the themes we offer.

What's the address of the blog you are referring to? and what's the username of the "new person" ?

thank you for refunding me the $13, much appreciated!
things seem to be working fine except for these three things:
1. after clearing the cache and history in Safari, I still can't get to the blog notesonthenose.com nor http://www.notesonthenose.com (it works in Firefox), but...
2. when I click on Home from the menu it takes me to a page for the theme Chateau and says 100 year journey cannot be found.
3. from my dashboard, in view all posts, when I try to click view or preview any of my posts it gives an error messages saying Safari can't find the server.

Thank you again for all your help,
Maxine
