  I inadvertently linked http://creativeconundrum.com/tnlsd to this account when I made a mirror of my site for development purposes. This is creating problems with wordpress.com stats at the live self-hosted blog, which should be the ONLY blog linked to this account.

  I have marked the mirror blog as ”hidden” but the wordpress.com stats dashboard at the self-hosted site (http://thenewlistsandiego.com) is still showing the development mirror site as the link at the top and it is also reporting views at the mirror site (http://creativeconundrum.com/tnlsd/) even though I have disabled and deleted the wordpress.com stats plugin at the mirror.

  How can I remove the currently linked blog and replace it with http://thenewlistsandiego.com?

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

  Are you using the WordPress.com Stats plugin?

  If so, it’s not under as active of development as Jetpack: http://jetpack.me/

  Please give Jetpack a try. It should fix your problem, and it contains plenty of new, cool features.

  Ok. I’m understanding that wordpress.com stats plugin is not the latest technology and I’ll see what this new plugin is that you’ve recommended but installing a new plugin doesn’t remove the linked blog from my wordpress.com dashboard, and it should not be linked there as the domain belongs to my website designer.

  I also want to make sure that my self-hosted domain is linked to my wordpress.com global dashboard. That domain is http://thenewlistsandiego.com.

  So the request is this:

  1) Remove http://creativeconundrum.com/tnlsd/ from my global dashboard linked blogs
  2) Add http://thenewlistsandiego.com to my global dashboard linked blogs

  How can this be done?

  Not a problem.

  2. thenewlistsandiego.com appears to already be linked.

  Hi,
  I have the same problem and I have try everything.
  I really do not know how I end up with a linked blog, I just need one, any way, my domain
  name is http://andresvalenzuela.net and that is what I want to use as my address.
  So I want to get rid off http://goodviewfinder.wordpress.com and set up http://www.andresvalenzuela.net as my main address blog.

  puyehue200, you can delete your WordPress.com blog following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  For future reference, please start your own topic next time.
