Can I use the domain I've used for another account here in this account?
-
Hi there! I want to add the domain I’ve used for another account which I’ve already deleted here in this account.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
*Oh, I meant, I want to transfer a blog address I’ve used with another account to this account.
-
Can you reply with a few more details?
What is the domain?
What blog was it mapped to before and what blog do you want to map it to instead?
-
Oh, thank you for replying! Honestly, I don’t really know much about mapping the blog. :(
But I think I’ve made the mistake of deleting an account earlier, not thinking that I could have just transfer it to the account I’m using now. Thus now, I can’t use the blog address of that account now.
(I hope I’ve explained it better) Anyway thank you in advance :)

“If you find that an active blog address is registered by another user, you may be able to obtain it for your use if the owner of the blog agrees to transfer it to you. You may contact the blog owner – via a comment on their site or through a contact form, if available – to ask for their consent. ” https://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
Based from there, I just want to reuse and add the blog address (the one I’ve used before theartsypursuit/artsypursuit) here in the current account I’m using.
(hopefully my English skills are not failing me) :p

Since you mentioned a domain, I thought you were referring to a custom domain name, but it seems you are not so you can ignore the questions from before.

To make sure I understand, are you saying you want to manage the https://theartsypursuit.wordpress.com/ blog from the ughfeelsplease WordPress.com account?
If that is correct, you will first need to log out of WordPress.com and log back in as artsypursuit and then follow these instructions:

I’ve logged onto the other account however, I think because I’ve already deleted theartsypursuit earlier and I cannot see the option for “Transfer blog”

I think that should work. Please try again with these steps:
1. Log out of WordPress.com (make sure you are definitely logged out)
2. Log in as artsypursuit (do not use your email as the username)
3. Go to https://theartsypursuit.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs
4. Hover over theartsypursuit.wordpress.com and the “Transfer Blog” link should appear
Make sure to read all the instructions and warnings carefully.

Hi Sheri!
Thank you for your patience. I think all is well now. I’ve transferred the blog already. Thank you again! :)
