  Hi all,
  I have a question about tags url for my wordpress.com blog.
  Recently, I modified some categories and tags. Few days ago I created a lot of tags with the same name of old categories.
  Now, when I try a specific tags through the links in my blogs, I open a page like this http://en.wordpress.com/tag/security-2/ (with postfix -2).
  Is there a way to change it to http://en.wordpress.com/tag/security/ (without postfix -2)?

  Thanks, Luca.

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

  We cannot change the permalink structure at wordpress.com but we can convert categories to tags and visa versa. See here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/category-management/#converting-categories-to-tags Also be aware that if you use the same word or phrase as a category and as a tag you will experience editing problems.
