  I changed the wordpress.com web address for my blog recently. But now, when I am viewing my blog and I click the “home” tab, it goes back to the old web address and informs readers that the content has been deleted.

  How do I fix this?

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

  Thanks for reporting this issue. I see exactly what you mean when I click the Home tab:

  davertelena.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  You have a custom menu set up with a custom link for home pointing to your old site:
  https://herewegosailblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/nav-menus.php

  You just need to go to the link above and redo your Home link and it should be working again for you.

  @timethief, there wasn’t any way to know for sure unless you could see the Dashboard. :)
