Is it possible to change the name of my blog? “Terminal401” is the beginning of my email address, & is not descriptive og the content of the blog. I would like “twentysixpointtwo” as the title. Is that possible????
Thank you.

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

If you want to change the blog address ie. the URL, then you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to do that by using this guide http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog.

Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
and if required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery.

Is logging in as an admin different from logging onto the site?
Thank you.

OMG! Now I’m being told that “the authors have deleted this website” when I click on twentysixpointtwo.wordpress.com! This is incredibly frustrating…

How many username accounts do you have?
And which username account registered the blog you want to access?

timethief-

Thank you very much for your time. I am unable to get the dashboard to appear, no matter what I do. I’ve tried to sign in under the url you posted above, but no luck. So I’m going to log off for now, & maybe go elsewhere for a blog site.
Thank you again for your assistance.
