    i’m trying to move from squarespace to wordpress and it’s an absolute nightmare. i don’t need to keep any content- i’m literally just trying to get wordpress to show up instead of SQSP. i have a feeling that i’m missing a small step but i can’t figure out what it is. i’m trying to install a theme from theme trust.

    i transferred my domain to bluehost (beccahallstedtdesign.com) and in the BH website, i went to install WP at this URL https://www.mojomarketplace.com/scripts/install_script/166fef1a-0c17-11e2-8b3b-0030483370c8 but got the notification

    “We noticed the domain you are installing at is not set up yet with your hosting provider.
    We can still install this, then once your domain is set up you will be able to see your installation.”

    any ideas what that means?

    ns3.systemdns.com. 824 IN A 64.99.96.36

    What that is saying is that your domain name is not pointed to Bluehost. You need to contact the company you registered your domain through and have them point the name servers to ns1.bluehost.com and ns2.bluehost.com.

    The error message you received was telling you that your domain wasn’t pointed to bluehost. Once that’s done it should clear up nicely.
