how to change my profile url link

  • Unknown's avatar

    my profile show the wrong URL, as a result when you click my profile (in comments) you get to the wrong place
    how do I change it?
    and if we’re at this question, if I have 2 blogs under my account and I want to delete only one of them, is it doable?

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

    this is even weirder
    I noticed now that when I clicked my avatar or username for this comment it does take me to the correct address. but when I do the same hing on my own blog comments I get different URL…

    In “Your Profile” have you set your primary blog to ” http://itdualism.wordpress.com/
    and have you scrolled down to “update?”

    re: delete one blog
    Yes, you can delete just one blog. It is permanent so you will never ever be able to use that name again. Easier and retrievable if you change your mind in future would be to set the unwanted blog to “private.”

    That’s because the comment was made before you updated your blog URL in your profile section so the comment will continue to link to the old URL.

    if I have 2 blogs under my account and I want to delete only one of them, is it doable?

    Yes you can delete your blog but do note this is irreversible you will lose the blog URL and blog for forever. If you still want to proceed then here is the FAQ about How to Delete a Blog

    @1tess – yes, itdualism.wordpress.com is set as the primary

    the problem with both links you provided for deleting or making the blog private is that it affect the whole account, not just one of the blogs within the accounts. I want to delete just one and keep the other. is there anyway in the process where you can indicate which of the blogs in the account should be deleted?

    @t3ck – I’ve update my blog URL in my profile a while back but even after doing so I keep getting the wrong URL (which is the same as the blog I want to delete)

    thanks you both, I hope I am clear enough

    @ofironen
    I’ve never deleted a blog, but I have several private blogs on the same account as my main blog.
    It appears that you should sign in to the blog you want to delete and proceed with the delete blog instructions. The blog you are signed in to will be deleted.

    I don’t think deleting the second blog will change your profile situation, though.

    did a quick test: switched to the other blog, changed settings to private
    the result – my main blog prompt for username.
    changed back and got back to my starting point…

    and again: the problem that really bug me is my profile that point to the wrong URL

    @ofironen On your profile page you will see a drop down menu I recommend checking there and see if you have the Correct URL chosen as the primary blog.
