  With thanks,

  To change a blog URL ending in wordpress.com, please follow these steps. Another alternative is to purchase a custom domain name to take “wordpress” out of the domain altogether.

  Hello there,
  Many thanks. However, while the blog name has successfully changed, an unfortunate side effect has occurred. From any of the other pages on the site, clicking on Home takes the viewer to the original Home page not the new one. Inspecting the associated url with Home on one of these other pages shows that it still has the original url (with bundanooncc, not bundanooncroquetclub.). I have, using “Inspect the element, gone into the html for that page and altered the address but there is no way to save what I write.

  I urgently need to have this problem remedies, as Google is now picking up the site and taking people to the wrong, dead end Home page (http://bundanooncc.wordpress.com/), which displays WordPress data and says the blog is no longer available. Clearly, I want the new site to be accumulating hits that Google will register.
  With thanks,
  Neill.

  It should be fixed now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
