  my blogs are messed up
  Hi – I’m contacting you for help for the third time. I have a blog named Black Purl Farm .com. I want this as my primary blog. Somehow, the name of the blog with this URL got changed to “My Blog”. The blog named Black Purl Farm somehow got the URL BlackPurlFarmdotcom.wordpress.com. I DO NOT WANT THIS BLOG. I paid the $18 to have the BlackPurlFarm.com address and that’s the only one I want, but when I try to delete the dotcom blog I get all these stern warnings not to to it.
  Also – when I type in BlackPurlFarm.com it tells me that access to that blog is private. IT IS NOT PRIVATE. I never changed its accessibility. Can someone help me get the blackpurlfarmdotcom.wordpress.com blog deleted? I want to keep the name of it and have BlackPurlFarm.com go directly to the Black Purl Farm blog, which I want as primary.
  Also – When I go into my “Manage My Blogs” page it tells me I have 2 blogs with the same content, “My Blog” with the BlackPurlFarm.com address and Black Purl Farm with the blackpurlfarmdotcom.wordpress.com address. I want Black Purl Farm to be the one accessed thru the URL I paid for and the dotcom blog deleted. And the names switched. Please. Can anyone help me?
  Blog url: http://blackpurlfarm.wordpress.com/

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