  Hi,

  I recently changed the name of my blog and am trying to make it a .com. However the name of the old blog keeps appearing as the only one I can convert to a .com.

  Can anyone help me with this?

  Thanks so much for your time! :)

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

  I’m not sure I entirely understand what it is you want to do.

  You have 2 WPcom sites that I can see:
  lisavproulx.wordpress.com and
  magicforestgypsystones.wordpress.com

  You want to buy a domain name (convert to .com) for one of these sites but only see the other site as an option?

  Are you in the correct site’s Dashboard?

  And what is it you want to delete? Any domain that you are trying to map to a WordPress.com website must have an underlying WordPress.com website to be mapped to, so don’t delete!

  If the answers I’ve given don’t match what it is you are trying to do, please give us more information.

  Hi and thank you for writing.

  I have a lot of blogs however I want to convert magicforestgypsystones to a .com.

  At the top of the Dashboard page it reads, Make magicforestbohemianrocks a .com for $18. This is the old name of my blog.

  Where do I convert the new name magicforestgypsystones?

  Thanks again and have a great day! :)

  Lisa

  Thank you so much! Yes, the new site name finally popped up. I guess I wasn’t giving it enough time to refresh! Thanks again and have a great weekend! :)
