Reactivating the blog I didn't mean to deactivate!

    I just created a blog with the name samanthadperez.wordpress.com and I couldn’t figure out how to change the theme because I was not completely familiar with the site. I thought that I could just start over with it and pick another theme but I can’t seem to choose that name again.

    I was hoping someone could tell me how to reactivate the blog or the name since I just did it the other day – I really do not want to lose it!

    Thank you :)

    Samantha,

    Unfortunately, once deactivated/deleted, it cannot be recovered. There are warning messages throughout the process of deactivation/deletion. In some cases, if it has been two years or more and no conflicts, then it is possible.

    See here for more information:

    I’m sorry there isn’t better news.
