Start over

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi I want to start over. Keep the same url but create a new blog. However, I somehow got 2 url when I tried to change the original url address from tranganhvu.wordpress.com to pinktruggle.wordpress.com. I don’t want to remove to old content on pinkstruggle.wordpress.con as I want to keep it so is there anyways I can just hide/make it invisible to other? Or can I just start over on tranganhvu.wordpress.com? But I want my start over url to be called pinkstruggle.wordpress.con. Hence is there I way I swoop names of those 2 or move all content from pinkstruggle.wordpress.com to tranganhvu.wordpress.com and make the old content invisible? And how does all of this effect my stats?

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

    Hi,
    tranganhvu.wordpress.com has been deleted so you can’t do anything with that one now.

    If you want to keep the pinkstruggle.wordpress.com url and move the content to another site, start at the dashboard and go to Tools > Export to download the XML file to your computer.

    Then create another WordPress.com site: https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/

    Go to the dashboard of the new site, then Tools > Import > WordPress, and upload the file you downloaded earlier.

    Once that’s successful, make the new site private so it’s no longer visible to anyone. Go to Settings > Reading and tick the box next to “I would like my site to be private, visible only to myself and users I choose”. Then click “Save Changes” at the bottom. More info: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

    Only when you’re certain your content is safely on the private site, go back to pinkstruggle.wordpress.com and remove all of the content: https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/

    Your stats will probably drop to zero for a time since the original site is gone.
