  After changing my URL, my friend was not able to see my new post on their Reader, they had to manually look up my URL. Also after making this change, my new notifications don’t seem to refresh on my mobile apps.

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

  This is a very common problem. I will flag this for staff to move your followers over.

  Hi there,

  You want your subscribers moved from ayapblog.wordpress.com to aliciaspunsugar.wordpress.com , correct?

  If you confirm, I can move them for you. You might also want to put a site redirect on ayapblog.wordpress.com if you have many permalinks that you’d like to redirect to the new site:

  Actually, I’m sorry – since you used the blog address name change tool, your subscribers were automatically moved to the new site. So you are all set. :)

  The only thing you might want to do is set up a site redirect on the old one, so that if anyone goes to ayapblog.wordpress.com they’ll be automatically redirected to your new site. Let me know if you have further questions!

  Everything seems to be resolved, I am able to receive notifications on my mobile devices and my friend is able to view my post on the Reader now. Thank you for your time :)
