How to change addres name!
-
I have a blog leinosten.wordpress.com, but I want to change the adress to rubiininpunainenunelma.wordpress.com. How to do it? I have tried it many times, but only got aswer: “The address is already in use.” I set up a blog earlier with this address. But I removed it.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

rubiininpunainenunelma.wordpress.com is no longer available.
The authors have deleted this site.
I’m sorry, but that site is gone. You won’t be able to register it, even if you’re the one who deleted it.
Instructions to change your blog URL are found in this support doc: http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/
Please make sure you read the support doc and all instructions and warnings carefully as this process cannot be reversed.
When prompted whether you’d like to keep the old URL or delete it, consider keeping it as deleted URLs can never be recovered: http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
Rather, set the old address to private, and then you can either use it as a test blog to try out new themes and widgets, etc., or you can use it as a backup to your regular blog by periodically importing content to it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
As part of the process you’ll also have the option to change your username to match the new address. Note that if you do this your current username will cease to exist and you won’t later be able to go back to it. If you prefer, you can also keep your username what it is and simply change your display name (what will appear next to comments – on the forum it will still be the actual username that appears). Instructions to do that can be found here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/
To automatically redirect visitors from the old address to the new one you’ll need to buy the Site Redirect upgrade: http://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/
