  Hi,

  I’ve mistakenly created a second blog, instead of updating my URL.
  Can you please remove my second blog, so I can update my primary blog with the correct URL.

  thanks

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

  Please define “my second blog” and “my primary blog” by giving us the URLs in question.

  the primary is the one listed above, but I want to change this URL.
  Unfortunately I’ve created a second blog manawamoments.wordpress.com, which is actually what I wanted to change the URL to.

  You can’t change a blog’s URL into an existing URL. What you can do instead is Import the content to the URL you want (on the dashboard Tools page) and buy the Redirect Upgrade so that anyone going to the old URL is automatically bounced to the new one instead.

  So a system administrator can’t delete my secondary blog for me?

  I don’t want to have to purchase anything. The blog isn’t live as yet, so haven’t released it to anyone.

  If you delete it, you can never get those contents or URL back. Just set it to Private if you don’t want it. This way you have a free blog to tinker with themes and widgets and such.

  If you don’t have followers or incoming links, then don’t sweat the upgrade. Don’t buy it.
