  So I am about to change the name of my blog. I understand that users will loose links to former site but will I loose content also and do I need to change categories, pages etc. Also? Uniquelyyourscards to uniquelyyourscardsandcrafts

  Hi there,

  Yes, links to your old address will be broken once you change your site URL, and you will need a site redirect upgrade in order to redirect visitors from the old site URL to your new one.

  However, you will not lose any site content or need to change your category, page, or post URLs. All of that will be handled when you update your site URL.

  Hope that helps,
