  Hi. I’m very new to WordPress and spent hours yesterday setting up blogs and playing with site names. I’m afraid I deleted one that I wanted to keep and now I don’t know how to get it back. The original name was http://howthechilligotherkick.wordpress.com which I then changed to ‘his’ kick but I wanted to stay with the original ‘her’. Is it possible to make it available to me again? Thanks so much. Virginia Macgregor

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

  Unfortunately it is not possible to re-use a deleted url. You might use “howchilligotherkick” or some other variation. Or you could use domain mapping (a paid upgrade).
