How to replace DNS?

    I purchased server hosting and a domain from DreamHost, but I cannot get the domain to work with WordPress. I see that I need to add NS1.WORDPRESS.COM, NS2.WORDPRESS.COM, and NS3.WORDPRESS.COM, but I do not see where I can add these.

    Thank you for your help!

    To be clear, I created my blog as wvugradstudent.wordpress.COM … perhaps that is part of the problem.

    I need help setting up www.remarpro.com on my new server. Please help! Thank you.

    1. DNS serrings are changed where you purchased the domain at. So if you bought a domain from abc company but your hosted by xyz, you need to go to abc to make dns changes.

    Some, not all, hosts, allow you to buy a domain and host it there too. In that case abc would be the same for both examples above.

    wvugradstudent.wordpress.COM is a wordpress.com blog, and has nothing to do with dns.

    I need help setting up www.remarpro.com on my new server. Please help!

    What are you having trouble with? Have you even done anything? Coming here before you have even tried doesnt suggest you want help, it suggests you want someone else to do the work for you.

    Here is some good reading:

    13 year olds can set up wordpress – a grad student shouldn’t have any trouble.

    Thanks for the links.

    Sorry to have troubled you. I had been reading through the support forum but still had confusion. No need to be snarky about my work ethic or intelligence because of my lack of familiarity with WordPress.

    actually the latter was a vote of confidence, but you can take it any way you like.
