  When I originally setup my wordpress account I made a mistake in my default url. How do I change it or delete it so that I have only my custom domain

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

  Your dashboard will always show your _____.wordpress.com URL, no matter what it is. With a custom domain (such as searchingfortruffles.com) no viewer will ever see your _____.wordpress.com URL.

  However, if you still want to change your _____.wordpress.com URL, you can find instructions for doing so here:

  Please keep in mind that you will not be able to return to your initial address once you change. It will become permanently unavailable.
