  HI,

  I can’t change my blog address. I checked the instructions in http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/. But when I move the cursor over that address, it only shows “leave blog”. I tried to register two other blogs and their addresses can be changed as showed in the instruction. Why?

  Thanks,

  David

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

  Hi David. Are you the administrator of that blog? If not, are there other usernames that have access to that blog’s dashboard and that have administrator privileges?

  I am the only administrator and user of the blog.

  However, some wired things happened that I can’t remove some posts of the blog, the blog is migrated/imported from my previous self-host wordpress blog. I don’t know whether that has anything to do w/ it.

  Thanks,

  David

  Hi,

  Anyone know who I can get help? it seems I am not my blog owner. I checked wordpress.com support contact page but unfortunately it blackouts at the moment.

  Thanks,

  David

  What is the URL of the blog that you’re trying to change?

  I’m having the same problem.
  Can I post my URLs here?

  I purchased a domain name: http://www.thefreshnerd.com
  But it says the blog I’m running is http://www.thefreshnerddotcom.wordpress.com
  And I also have http://www.thefreshnerd.wordpress.com

  How can I get my purchased domain name to “www.thefreshnerd.wordpress.com”?

  It looks like you somehow removed yourself as owner, but I corrected that.

  Please try again!
