  At the moment, under Settings > General, the WordPress Address (URL) & Site Address (URL) are gray and unable to be clicked on and accessed. Our aim is to change the current URL that sits in these categories, so that the website can be accessed using a different URL other than our current one.

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

  Hi,
  Assuming the .WordPress.com blog address you want is available, you can change it by using these instructions, > changing a blog address > http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

  Or if what you want to do is purchase your domain and then it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com blog URL is > http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/register-domain/

  I hope that will help you.

  Hi there,

  The site URL of the site you indicated is hosted by Pressable, not by WordPress.com, which also means it’s a self-hosted WordPress website. If you try to change the URL of a self-hosted site in Settings you’ll only break your site.

  You need to set a domain in your Pressable dashboard at my.pressable.com. Please contact Pressable support if you need more help with that.
