  I would want to change the site name to ptagolspelintsch.wordpress.com rather than ptagospelintschwordpresscom.com. More so i cannot access the site if opened in new window. Looks like i have spent an amount of time on building a site for my school for nothing.Please advice

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

  Hey there,

  I wanted to verify that ptagolspelintsch.wordpress.com is the URL you want to change your site to? You can change your blog address by going to My Blogs, and clicking the Change Blog Address link that appears when you hover over the address you want to change:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/

  Note that you have the option to choose your user name to match the new blog address. If you choose this option, you will not be able to revert back to the original username, and it can affect profile URLs for other services such as Gravatar or IntenseDebate.

  For detailed instructions/information on changing your blog name, please visit our support document:

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
