  Help! I changed both my title of my blog and site address. However, why and how can I fix my web address? my comments on other posts say my site was deleted? My content and site still exist, I’m not clear why or how to fix this?

  Hi there,

  Can you tell us the URL of the site you need help with?

  my comments on other posts say my site was deleted?

  Do you mean when you click on your username on comments?

  The site your username links to is set on your account settings page, under Website address:

  https://wordpress.com/me/account

  That doesn’t change automatically when you change the address of the site itself, so you’ll need to change it there in your account settings.

  Once you update that, new comments you leave will link to the correct address, but any existing comments will continue linking to the old, deleted address, as that data gets cached on the sites where you commented themselves and doesn’t update after the fact.
