Had a blog disappear
-
I have had a blog that i have posted and people have commented on disappear. When i tried to retrieve it by accessing the comments on the blog I found that the comments were now under the next blog’s name. It appears that the next blog i wrote replaced the last. Is there anyway to undo this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Are you referring to a Page or a Post?
Or are your referring to a blog ie. a post based website? -
I’m guessing you mean a Post. If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

See also if applicable > restoring from trash http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash(If you are referring to a Page then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-revisions/)
But if the post was created here http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ there is no means of recovery as the auto-save is not functioning there.
Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
The auto-save works there and the post will be Standard post format unless you change it.Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ where the auto-save is not working and where you are creating an Aside post format.
Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/

thank you! It looks like I won’t get it back. But at least I have learnt to use the dashboard in the future!
