 * Hi, guys
    I am having several types of troubles for the last months while trying
   to install wordpress. The thing is that I have a blog on wordpress.com that I
   would like to export to wordpress.org. I did the installation on wd.org with 
   the same name I have on wp.com (domain and everything). So when I finish setting
   up everything on Cpanel, etc and ii go to access my wordpresspage.com/wp-admin/
   I am redirected to my panel on wordpress.com instead of wordpress.org. If I want
   to access my panel from wordpress.org I have to use /localhost/wordpresspage.
   com/wp-admin/ thats an internal page. When I try to import my wp.com to wp.org
   on plugin it either asks for my FTP info or says that couldn’t create directory.
   I can say that I am pretty noob on this area but it’s been so frustrating because
   i have been trying to find what could be wrong. I repeated the whole installation
   process several times. Its been like 3 months since I have signed up a host service(
   hostgator) and i still couldn’t make my website work 🙁 I would be very very 
   thankful if somebody could help me! I don’t really know if the problem is with
   the database or because my domain is still located on wp.com.
