Rename site to consultingrsa
-
Hi, I realised that I made a mistake in the name of my site so I attempted to copy the content over to a new subdomain with the correct name. I discovered that it was possible to rename the current subdomain so I deleted the new one and attempted to rename. Unfortunately I don’t seem to be able to complete the operation. I suspect the deleted name is still somehow reserved.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi there! So long as the free URL isn’t taken already, you can use this guide to change your site URL: https://wordpress.com/support/changing-site-address/#changing-your-word-press-com-site-address
Give that a try and let us know if you run into any issues along the way. :)

Unfortunately the name I would like to appears to be reserved, probably because I initially tried to recreate the site with the correct name before deleting it 30 or so minutes later.

Hi there,
I have reactivated your deleted site and you will now see it listed in your account here: https://wordpress.com/sites
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

The reason for me deleting the site was that I couldn’t see a way of transferring the content easily. For me, as the site isn’t ‘active’ yet the ideal solution was to rename.
Now that’s not an option any more, is there a way of exporting and easily reimporting the content? I’m operating from a smart phone exclusively so cut-and-paste is difficult.

Here’s how to export your contents from one site and import them to the other:
