  I have set up two blogs using the same address (URL) in error, and I wish to delete one of them but keep the site address. How do I remove one blog so that I can use the other without any conflict?

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

  Hi there,

  Thanks all!

  After looking into your account, I found that you do not have duplicate blogs. You can three blogs:

  deadliycarm.wordpress.com
  littledeadly.wordpress.com
  deadlycarm.wordpress.com

  If you do not want to permanently delete the site but just keep the site address. I recommend hiding the site instead. You can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:

  Thanks both…. I think the ‘fix’ was the problem… I had a duplicate blog that was wiped. I amended the address of the other blog and the first one reappeared… Very odd!

  Thanks for your help!

  Thanks for the clarification! I’m sorry about that. We are having this issue with duplicate blogs and we are working on it as we speak.

  If you would like to delete the second blog, follow the guide below:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/

  Please read the warnings and advice before deleting a site, as we can’t revert a site deletion for any reason. (Make sure you are in the Dashboard of the duplicate site).

  If you want to hide your site instead, you can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:

  I’m sorry about the inconvenience!
