eatthegood

actually, it appears to have worked now.. not sure what I did differently. THANK YOU!

I just tried that, and it did not work… do you think it is a problem due to the way the theme was created?

i received a reply in my email but all it said was:
“esmi wrote:

See Using_Themes.”

no link or anything. link would be appreciated.. thank you. sorry for bumping, i should have more thoroughly read the rules.

i just did that on wordpress.com. i have contacted here, there, and godaddy already…. in your opinion, would it be less of a hassle to just transfer the domain to godaddy so everything is all in one place?

no i did not cancel anything at wordpress.com. only in my godaddy dns.
didnt you say for others not to interrupt a thread? :/ i am still trying to get this resolved. not to be rude or anything.

thats quite a while but good to know.. i just saw other people having faster results so i thought i was still doing something wrong. but to be honest i don’t remember how i got it to work. i bought everything in november not realizing i would have such a problem. i may have set it up when i first purchased godaddy hosting.
this is what my account info page looks like:
i took a screenshot and uploaded it to my photobucket.

i cancelled the off-site out of curiosity. seems like it hasn’t fixed anything but my domain was removed from the list in the dns manager and therefore nothing says “pending” anymore…

i just realized what i had done that caused it to say pending transfer! i had NO idea what i was doing when i was playing around.
in my godaddy dns manager, i added “off-site dns” and i honestly didnt know what that meant. i assumed a few months ago it would have fixed my problem. should i cancel it?

esmi — i purchased my actual domain name eatthegood.com from wordpress.com. not www.ads-software.com. i first set up a blog on wordpress.com for free and when i realized i could not install custom themes, i then paid for my custom url eatthegood.com. i paid like 28 dollars for the domain name and the security so people cannot access my personal information through whois.
then i actually purchased hosting on godaddy separately. i followed instructions to have my domain hosted on godaddy so i thought i was finished. i never actually transferred my url, eatthegood.com to godaddy because if i’m not mistaken, they will host domains purchased from other places like the one i bought.

can you explain more? why would I need to transfer, exactly? do you mean transfer my wordpress domain name to godaddy? I already paid for it on wordpress though so unsure of what I need to transfer? I’m honestly trying to figure this out by reading up and winging it so I don’t quite understand everything yet. I am not totally new to website creation, but new to wordpress.

thank you, esmi… I hope someone can offer me some information, still trying to load my admin page and nothing, several hours later after my first attempt…

also, I went to my godaddy DNS manager and next to my domain eatthegood.com it says pending transfer.. I think at some point I played with this too but don’t remember what I did, it was over a month ago.
