  My wife and I merged our two blogs into one. The help screens said that her followers would be rerouted to the new blog. They have not been. How can we reverse it?

  Her old blog is bessjonesphotography.wordpress.com and the new url is todayonearthart.wordpress.com. We’d still like a merged blog, but would at least like for her to post an invitation for her blog’s followers to show up at the new blog, since they weren’t re-routed.

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

  Hi there! I can transfer those followers. However, I need the request to come from the owner of the original site bessjonesphotography.wordpress.com. Can you have her chime in here requesting that the followers be transferred?

  It’s telling her that replies to this are limited to staff and myself.

  Whoops! That’s right. I apologize. I just moved this thread so she should be able to comment here now.

  Hi! I am the owner of bessjonesphotography.wordpress.com. If you could transfer my followers from that site to the newly merged site, todayonearthart.wordpress.com I would be deeply grateful.

  Thanks!

  Thanks for following up here. :)

  I’ve just started the migration of those followers. It will be finished shortly.

  Let me know if there’s anything else I can do!
