    Okay, personally I don't know their control panel BUT as I understand your 1st post you wanna transfer your .com WP site to the .net domain, right?

    First of all, I have to ask you why do you want to do that? The .com extension has to be your main domain if you have it because it's the most common & popular extension.

    Or, the second option you want to redirect your .net domain to your .com site. In this case just setup a http redirect on your .net domain.

    To do that you should create an "index.html" file in your domain root folder, and the file has to contain this:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Your Website Name</title>
    <meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://www.yournetdomain.net"></head>
    <body>
    Redirecting ...
    </body>
    </html>
    Code (markup):
    If you want you can just edit/create a ".htaccess" file which should contain:
    Redirect 302 / http://www.yournetdomain.net
    Code (markup):
    If I misunderstood your 1st post please just tell me exactly what you want and I'm gonna help to you, if you want you can also send me a PM.

    1st, Actually I install WP for .com domain and now i want to update my complete site if i work on .com domain then website wont display as no index page is updated.

    Afterwards, I realize that I do have a .net domain which is not in use then i decide to work on .net domain, Once website updation will complete then move to updated website to .com domain.
