    If i change my address name, the previous address will not be able to used.
    Is there is possible to used again.

    For example:
    My first site used test1234, then i changed to test. Then I create a new site and sued the name test, which won’t allow me to used. Is there any solution to solve this .

    Thanks

    It is possible to reverse a site deletion for the first 30 days after a site is closed. If you realize you closed your site in error, please contact us immediately. We will be able to assist you in restoring your site during this 30 day window. Once the 30 days have passed, all of your site data is purged and cannot be restored.

    But an important caveat is that after 30 days it is absolutely impossible – Staff cannot make exceptions. At the moment recycling URLs are not possible at all. If an address is deleted, it’s gone once it passes 30 days, as it says in the Delete Site support doc. Closing a username account does not free up site addresses that match or belonged to that username that have been deleted.

    Hi there,

    If you want to make an address change without deleting the old address, you need to do it via the My Blogs page in the WP-Admin dashboard – there you will have the option to keep or discard the old address.

    Can you please confirm the full address of the deleted site that you wish to have restored?
