  Hi, I want to register https://iftimahmud.wordpress.com/ which starts with my name, but unfortunately I can’t. When I visit the site I get this message ‘no longer available. The authors have deleted this site.’. If the author have deleted the subdomain name shuoldn’t it be available again for registering? How can I get that subdomain now?

  Thanks.

  Hi there,

  As the links @timethief provided above explains, it is not possible for you to use that address. Deleted WordPress.com addresses are removed from our system and are not made available for use again.

  We can only restore it at the original owner’s request, and we can only do that in the first 30 days after deletion.

  Thanks @timethief and @kokkieh for your response.

  Now I can’t really find a way to edit or delete this forum post. What if I mistakenly type something and want to edit. How can I do that?

  Hi @kokkieh
  Please restore that deleted domain and transfer the ownership to the requester. I am the original owner of the domain. If it’s not possible to transfer the ownership just restore it then.
  Thanks.

  Your account is not the original owner of the address, iftimahmud.wordpress.com, and has never been an admin on that site either. We cannot restore that site at your request.

  @kokkieh That’s weird. I thought I registered that domain from this account. Can I know the first 2 words of the email of the account that registered that domain, so that I can request from that account. It should start with ‘aff’, ‘dc’, ‘ig’ , ‘da’, or ‘im’.
