WordPress address change
-
I’m trying to change the address of one wordpress blog to the address of another wordpress blog that I’ve already registered.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

As you have already registered both URLs that’s not possible. What is possible now is exporting your content out of one blog https://en.support.wordpress.com/export/ and importing it into the other. https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/

Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and navigate to Tools.
The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
Dashboard > Tools > Export
http://heartcentrehealing.wordpress.com/wp-admin/tools.php?page=export-choices
Dashboard > Tools > Import
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/import.php* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.

Thanks! I’m trying the export/import now, but I keep getting “error code 404”. I’ve also received an email advising me to contact support and mention this code in order for it to be fixed, but the link in the email just takes me back to the forums. Any idea how I’m supposed to proceed with this?

The error occurs on the import. Also, it’s not for the blog mentioned above. I’m attempting this export/import between two of my other blogs.
