    Is there any way of changing this automatically generated home page URL?
    It obviously uses the email adresse but the HEROIC bit I do find embarrassing!

    I’ve tried changing the email adresse that I use for wordpress but it doesn’t seem to have done the trick.

    Am I stuck with this ? Do I have to scrap my site and start a new one? That’s painfull but if it’s the only solution so be it!

    I can’t bear to be eternaly :-

    Hi there!

    Haha, I feel your URL pain! Though, you don’t have to scrap your site. To change it:

    • Simply go to your Dashboard.
    • On the left, navigate to Upgrades → Domains.
    • Then click the three dots to the far right of your site address, and select “Change site address”.

    Here, you have more information about this:
