  Hiya, I’m trying to change my .wordpress.com domain but the box to do so is greyed out/won’t let me type in a new one. How do I fix this?

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

  Hi, are you typing the first part of the free WordPressdotcom site name you want in that box? https://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-site-address/

  Even if the first part is the same as your current site, bluevelvetbookss, you need to type that on the line although it may look like it is already filled out. If the site is available, the button to change address will become active or, if not, you’ll get a notice that that address is already used.

  If you are still encountering a problem, try using a different web browser (Firefox or Chrome recommended) or an incognito tab instead.

  Let us know how that goes.
