  Will permanently disabling a site when changing my blog address delete all the old content or will all the old content from the old address be transferred to the new address?

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

  When you’re using the Change Blog Address tool, and the option to permanently disable the old address comes up, then all the content from the old address will still get moved to the new address.

  All that option changes is whether the old URL gets deleted after the content is transferred. I normally recommend keeping the old URL until you’re fully settled on the new site.

  You can always delete the old address later.
