  Hi,

  Any link on my blog is http://wordpress.com (ex: http://wordpress.com/about/)

  I can’t find a way to change the link by mine…

  Any help?
  Thxs

  what is your blog URL supposed to be? It should be something like http://MYBLOG.wordpress.com

  Offcourse yes: http://vrithner.wordpress.com
  but this is not my question:
  my question is: Why links in MY blog is still “wordpress” and not “vrithner.wordpress”

  ex: this is the About link of my blog:
  http://wordpress.com/about/

  it should be automatic – isn’t it ?

  You cannot change the url for your wordpress.com hosted blog without purchasing a domain and a domain mapping upgrade. From the FAQs

  Vrithner:

  That is definitely not supposed to be happening. Send an email to support[at]wordpress.com and explain the issue. Make sure you include all the details.

  but this is not my question:
  my question is: Why links in MY blog is still “wordpress” and not “vrithner.wordpress”

  I realize that it wasn’t your question but the cause of the issue may have been something that you did on your blog that you can fix. That’s why i was asking. Please remember that we can’t see what you’re looking at unless you tell us where we should be looking.

  Agree with the feedback. Something didn’t get setup right. Please sure to include your url so staff can know which blog you;’re talking about.
