  I had to change the address of one of my sites (site 1) to a name using which i had already created a site (site 2). So i deleted the second site and tried to change the address of my first site but it shows ‘ Sorry, that site has already been used! ‘.

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

  Hello,

  To clarify – were you hoping to change the site name of site 2 (https://uutechnoworld.wordpress.com/} to the same name of site 1 which has been deleted?

  i need to change https://uutechnoworld.wordpress.com/ to uucss.wordpress.com .
  But the issue is that i had created another site with the name of uucss.wordpress.com which i had deleted earlier hoping that i could just change the name of uutechnoworld.wordpress.com to uucss.wordpress.com

  Hello @sauravsuman160396,

  Unfortunately because you deleted website with the name you were hoping to use it may not be possible to get this back. You can read more here, but again, it is likely you will not be able to get it back: https://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  I’ll add a tag for staff to follow-up. Be patient, they may not be able to answer right away as they are away for their annual meet-up.
