  Hi all,

  I initially set-up my blog with the url ‘pearsonsrookeryview.wordpress.com’ and afterwards changed it to the new name ‘wellsignwhowewant.wordpress.com’. This works absolutely fine apart from the ‘Home’ link at the top of the blog which instead of sending people back to my home page still forwards through to the ‘pearsonsrookeryview’ url which obviously comes up with a ‘Page Not Found’ page.

  How can I change the ‘Home’ link to send back to the correct ‘wellsignwhowewant.wordpress.com’ address?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You’re using a custom top menu, so you need to update that menu manually. Go to Appearance > Menus, delete the current “Home” item, click View All in the Pages module, select the Home item you’ll see, click Add to Menu, drag to reposition, save menu.
