My blog has disappeared
-
Hello.
I had a blog that I didn’t want anymore — actually, I wanted to change the URL, and given that it’s not possible, I created a new blog with the desired URL. After having exported the content of my first blog and imported on my second one, I deleted no 1. I kept doing changes on no 2 (http://histoiresdemars.wordpress.com), mainly on the widgets, and everything worked fine. About half an hour later, I came back on my blog and wanted to add a new post, so I clicked on the dashboard link — it leads me to my no 1 blog (http://denisavsfrance.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and it says “The authors have deleted this blog. The content is no longer available”. Ok, I know I deleted that one, I just want access to my second one! But no matter what link I click on (New Post or My Account -> My blogs), it keeps saying the same thing and redirecting me to my first blog links. It’s really frustrating and I didn’t find any answer yet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello there,
Please provide Staff with all the details here http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ -
Take note that as you have deleted the Primary blog and failed to assign a new one in it’s place you can do that now and here >
Dashboard > Users > Personal Settings > Primary Blog ___ select the other blog ___ scroll down and click “Save Changes”

You can also remove the link from your username to the deleted blog and enter the URL for the new blog here > Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to ‘Account Details’. In the spot where it says ‘Website’ fill remove the deleted blog’s URL and insert http://histoiresdemars.wordpress.com then and save the changes.

First of all, thank you for replying.
Second thing: I actually have assigned my second blog as primary before deleting. I tried to hide my first blog (I’ll call it DvF from now on, the initials of the title) from the dashboard, so I could only see Histoires de Mars, but every time I clicked on dashboard, it lead me back to DvF.
After posting here, things got a little better (must be a Murphy’s law or something) — it sometimes works and takes me to Histoires de Mars dashboard, but sometimes not. First thing I did when it worked it has been to go to Personal Settings and fill the new URL. Still, the error occurs once out of two tries.
What other details should I provide the Staff?

That sounds pretty comprehensive, but do supply them with BOTH blog urls, including the deleted one.

You’re welcome. I’m sorry I cannot be more helpful. You will need to file a support ticket that includeds all the details you have posted here as only Staff have backend access to blogs and only they can apply technical “fixes”. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/
Best wishes for a happy ending. :) -
10h later, everything seems to be working fine. I got no error yet and I hope it stays this way :)) Thank you everyone for your answers :)
