I created a blog yesterday but for some reason it was duplicated. I intended it to be hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com but somehow it appeared to me as hannymoralesphotography.signup.wordpress.com (with the word signup) when I was creating it and then when I tried to view it a warning appeared saying that there was something wrong with the page that I was trying to view and that it seemed to be other website trying to look as wordpress (I can’t remember the actual words but it looked like as if a phishing scam had been detected). So I thought maybe I had gone to another website by accident so I created another blog this time making sure it was hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com and had no problems. But then afterwards both blogs appeared in my dashboard so I proceeded to delete the one with the word signup in it. I did this successfully and than carried on modifying the other. Today I wanted to modify it further but when I clicked on the link to see the actual blog to see how it looked I got the message saying :
“hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this blog.”
So does this mean that by deleting hannymoralesphotography.signup.wordpress.com I also deleted the other? But if this is the case then how come I can still edit the blog?
Thank you.

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

I’m suspecting my problem may have something to do with this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/permalinks-causing-invalid-activation-key-error?replies=1 … but since I am new to all this I don’t really know for sure. I would appreciate if someone could help me . Thanks

http://hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com/ definitely still exists.

Were you able to resolve the issue?

Hi macmanx. No I can’t. I still have the problem. I just clicked on the link you posted to my blog and I still get the same message

“hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this blog.”

I can edit it but not actually view it.

Unfortunately I’m having the same problem again. I haven’t changed anything in my computer and again I can’t see the blog though I can edit it. I tried clearing the browser cache and this time that didn’t work. I’ve also tried using 3 different browsers and I can’t see it in either always get the same message saying the blog doesn’t exist. Can anyone help please.

That’s because it no longer does exist.

hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com is no longer available.

The authors have deleted this blog.

Yes but as I said before I deleted a duplicate which contained the word signup

hannymoralesphotography.signup.wordpress.com
(I have no idea why it had that word but it happened the same day as the website had problems). I never deleted

hannymoralesphotography.wordpress.com

. And yesterday after auxclass suggested clearing the cache then it was working as normal. So how come it seems now it is actually gone. I never deleted that one, will I not be able to recover it?

Is it just me or has the format of this thread gone screwy?

@ardpete
After a Modlook tag goes up it’s best if we Volunteers simply stop posting into the thread.

Yes the formatting has gone whacko

I was also able to leave a comment (waiting for you to moderate it) in the “deleted” site – so I don’t think it is really deleted since I did not visit the About page yesterday –

As @TT has adviced – Patience on this one – your blog and name see safe

Thanks @auxclass. I have received a notification regarding your comment (I guess there is no need to approve it but if you think I should please let me know), and like you say I will just wait for staff input.

Just trash the comment – if your site and name were really gone you would not have received the comment
