  I have a blog associated with my WordPress account that is (or, more to the point, was) hosted at its own domain name. I’d now like to remove that blog from my list of WordPress blogs, but I understand that I’m not able to do this myself. How do I go about submitting a request for the blog to be removed?

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

  I’m having the same exact issue. Have an old, deleted, self-hosted blog that I can’t remove from my wordpress.com dashboard. Can the support tagged for this thread also help me?

  Blog to delete: http://www.sourswinger.name/blog

  @jackiedana, thank you! Why are we not able to do this ourselves?

  This option is not currently available to bloggers but may be in the future.

  Hi – managing a number of wordpress.com and self-hosted WP blogs I’ve been having a terrible time trying to find a way of contacting support – so please forgive me for coming direct to a real person, Jackie…

  I’ve deleted the blog cantorescotswolds.wordpress.com completely, to which I had mapped the domain I own elsewhere cantores.net. I’m now trying to map cantores.net to the new choir website at http://www.cantorescw.wordpress.com. And keep getting the message, this domain is already mapped to a wordpress.com blog. Which I have deleted.

  HELP!

  As a workaround, I’ve set up permament webforwarding, so at least people land in the right place. Though I’d prefer to have the domain come up as cantores.net, which is what we had when it was self-hosted.

  Best thanks for ANY help you can provide.

  Hi mbrayne,

  Could you please post a new thread since your issue has nothing to do with the previous posts in this thread? Thanks. :)
