  I want to change the URL so i can email the site to friends but every time i try it says it’s disabled and to check back soon.
  is there a plan to enable this anytime soon or should i just open a new blog and forget about it?

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

  This is the blog linked to your username http://wineandjuice.wordpress.com/
  Is it the one in question or not?
  If it isn’t please post an active link starting with http:// to the blog in question.

  It’s my understanding that Staff are working on that feature and it’s not available at this time. I haven’t heard a date stated for when it will be available again. I do think it will be withing days from now.

  I am having the same problem with my blog address. This has clearly been going on for more than a week. I think I’m going to start a new blog and move my couple of posts. It will take me a couple of hours, and I’ll have to redirect my follower, but I don’t want to wait another week, based on the fact that there hasn’t been an answer given here in more than a week.

  Staff are working on that feature and it’s not available at this time. I haven’t heard a date stated for when it will be available again. When they do have it overhauled and it is available they will post into these threads and say so.

  P.S. There are multiple threads and they have all been answered.
