  how do i take content from the top level ((email visible only to moderators and staff) features a field campaign I did in the Arctic in 2008) and save it as a separate blog so I can put more current info on the home page?

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

  By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. For creating a post see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/#publish-a-new-post

  Thanks. I think you may have something there. I’ll bet I have two separate WordPress account, one set up under a now inaccessible email account. I’ll contact them.

  Hi there,
  I renamed my blog and therefore created a new wordpress blog. BUT if you click on HOME, it goes to my OLD blog.
  How can I fix this?
  Can you help me?

  Click on HOME where?

  Sorry, my blog is http://ourhomemarysmantle.wordpress.com
  If you click on HOME (on the first page of the blog), it takes you to my old blog:
  https://emilysestuary.wordpress.com

  I don’t know how to fix that.

  That’s weird.
  Is the link to your home page in a custom menu? Perhaps you can just change the title attribute of the page.

  Did you import content from the old blog to the new?

  I think I just renamed it.
  Sigh. I hate technology and my lack of “how to”.

  I wish someone from WordPress could fix it. Sigh.

  I meant modify the URL of the new Website/Home page, not the title, in custom menu.

  It’s ok. I don’t think I know how to do that. I’ll keep searching.
  Thank you.

  Where did you change the name?

  I followed the instructions (which I can not find, of course).
  I went to help. I said I wanted to change my blog name. I went to My account and changed it.

  I should have asked you to begin a new thread, because it’s off topic.

  I said I wanted to change my blog name. I went to My account and changed it.

  I thought you meant something else. Perhaps you can edit the HOME Page destination in custom menus, but we haven’t established that you have a custom menu, or that the HOME button can be modified there if you do .
  I’ve flagged the thread for Staff assistance.

  If I could fine where to change it, I sure would.
  I am not sure what you mean by Off Topic. Am I not allowed to ask a question?

  @mrsedavis,

  Am I not allowed to ask a question?

  Yes, of course you are allowed. But it’s rather unrelated to the initial question, which hasn’t really been resolved yet. It would have been better to begin a new thread.

  The Coraline theme does have a custom menu, so you could try to edit that if HOME is one of the items. See the Custum Menus support page, here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/.

  Your Custom Menu editor can be opened at dashboard navigation panel > Appearance > Menu, or click here: https://rachelinantarctica.wordpress.com/wp-admin/nav-menus.php

  Thanks. Sorry. I am clearly not good at the back end stuff.
  Sigh. I do appreciate your patience and knowledge.
