  When creating a new wordpress.com blog/site (free) I want to get the site.wordpress.com version of the site but I’m being assigned site.home.blog instead.

  Is there a way to fix this so that I’ve got site.wordpress.com as desired?

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

  When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question

  When I do that, the option isn’t presented for WordPress.com… Otherwise I’ve had selected it.

  Not certain why it doesn’t show up for me:
  

  Any solution to fix this?

  Now try registering your .wordpress.com site. As you can see from the screenshot below you get a suggestion to register huminspire.wordpress.com.
