  Is there any way I could translate my website from Weebly to here? Also, I mistakenly changed the url of my website and now I am not able to access it.

  Howdy –

  Yes, you can move your site over to WordPress.com. Were you using a custom domain at Weebly or just a free site address?

  We don’t have a direct Weebly importing tool, the ones we have are found on this page of instructions: https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/

  You’ll need to convert your site to one of those listed formats, and then use the assigned import tool to move it on your new WordPress.com site.

  Hi there,

  I accidentally changed the Url of my site and now I am not able to access it

  For that, I’m afraid you need to contact Weebly.

  Sorry for the confusion, I did not update my url on Weebly. I updated it on WordPress (…/Innoblue->…/innoblue).

  What is the site URL that you can’t access?

  http://hanboi.com/Innoblue/ is a self-hosted installation of the WordPress.org software on Bluehost rather than a WordPress.com-hosted site. (See https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ for more information about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org.) This forum is for support for WordPress.com-hosted sites — support for sites running the WordPress.org software can be found at https://wordpress.org/support. You should also be able to contact your web hosting provider, Bluehost, for support.

  Hi there,

  It sounds like you changed the site address from Settings ->General in WP-Admin, correct? If so, then contacting your hosting provider as advised above is best.

  For future reference, you can find the correct steps for changing the address of a self-hosted WordPress site here:

  https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL

  Though some hosting providers also have their own process for doing this.

  As for moving your Weebly site to that WordPress site, you can try one of the Weebly importers listed here:

  https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/weebly/

  That’s as much as we’re able to help you in this forum, as you’re using a different version of WordPress and we have no access to your site with Bluehost. For more help, please contact Bluehost support or post in the WordPress.org forums linked in @melancholia’s reply instead.
