Can't change Blog Address
-
I have an old wordpress.org blog that I transferred to wordpress.com. I am now trying to change the blog address of my blog: davidvanhal.wordpress.com. 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 am the administrator and the only user with access to this blog. What should I do?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Can anyone provide any support? I’m pretty sure this is an issue on wordpress.com’s end, but I’d gladly take any advice if it would help resolve the problem.

You are an administrator, but you are not the owner of that WordPress.com site. You must have had a second WordPress.com account at one time.

Thank you for your response. I think you’re right. I vaguely remembering having another WordPress.com account 9-ish years ago when I set it up.
Can I be added as the owner now? I’ve seen this solution in other forum topics such as: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/cant-change-blog-address?replies=12 .

You are going to need to regain access to the owner’s account. The best way to do that is the account recovery process here:

Awesome! I recovered the old account, added the blog back to that old one, and then was able to transfer ownership to my current account.
Thank you so much!
