Changing Web Addresses

    I’ve changed my web address twice and, accidentally, the second time I changed it and deleted the old blog, I misspelt ‘always’ and instead wrote ‘alway’. It originally said ‘always’ but I tried to delete the second site I had on my wordpress and ended up deleting that URL and leaving it with the misspelt one. I tried to change it back but it tells me that it’s already being used, though it was done by me and it was deleted. How can I change it back to the way it’s correctly spelt, the URL that originally said ‘always’?

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

    Unfortunately, from what I understand from this article, once a website’s address has been changed, it can never be changed back to what it was before – the original address will always be marked as having been used, even if you deleted it.

    I may be wrong, so you can check it out in more detail there, but my best advice would be to choose something slightly different that still captures the spirit of what you were originally going for, like “kralwaysbabygirl” or “alwaysbabygirl-kr” – just tread carefully, because each time you change your mind, whatever you change it away from will be “used up” so you can’t go back to it.
