Changed URL
-
I changed my URL from ‘onegrapefruits’ to ‘onegrapefruit’ and it seems like everything is messed up now. I have been an avid user for three years now and despite knowing a bit about coding, I have never dealt with something like this before and I don’t know how to fix it.
I don’t want my old URL but I also don’t want to lose my followers, comments, likes, and previous posts.
My new posts are not showing up on my reader, even though I am following my own site. They are also not showing up on mobile and I have a strong feeling that they aren’t showing up for anyone that follows me either.
Please let me what I can do and how I can fix this.
Thanks.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
All your posts are visible to me on https://onegrapefruit.wordpress.com/, the new address, and all your followers (110 in total) from the old site were moved over to this site.
I followed your site to test and all your posts are showing in the Reader for me, including all your test posts saying that it’s not showing. Please try clearing your browser cache and reload the Reader. Then you should see your posts in the feed – I have confirmed you are still following that site.

Hi kokkieh, thanks for responding so quickly.
I cleared my cache and still, nothing was fixed. I also deleted and re-downloaded the app for my phone and nothing was different on that end as well.
I know that if I go to my actual page, my posts appear. But I am not seeing them show up on the reader. I am assuming that they appeared for you since you followed my blog after I had changed the URL.
I am just concerned that the followers that I currently have are having the same issue from my end –where nothing of mine shows up for them either sine they followed me before I had changed my blog URL.
Does that make sense?
Thanks -
I checked again, and it looks like there might be a problem with your site’s feed. So all your followers are following the correct site, but the posts aren’t appearing in the Reader. I could see them because I added your site to my Reader manually, but if I follow using the follow button on your site it’s not working for me either.
I’ve asked a developer to look into this. I’ll let you know as soon as I hear back from them.
Any of your readers who are subscribed for email notifications should still be getting them. It’s just the feed in the Reader itself that’s affected. And that’s something we need to fix on our end.

Hi there,
Sorry this took so long, but your posts should be showing correctly again in the Reader now. Please let me know if you still have any more trouble with this.
