WordPress is saying my domain doesn't exist?

  • Unknown's avatar

    About a week ago, I changed my domain. I’ve been making changes and redesigning the website (with my new domain name) for about a week now. Today, when I tried to access my blog, a screen appeared saying the domain does not exist. I don’t want to ‘register the domain’ again in fear that all my changes/redesigning will be cleared.

    I need help. What happened? How do I get back to editing and posting like I’ve been doing the past few days? I was thinking maybe I should just wait a day or so to see if it self-corrects? Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • Hi @ashkatch – There has been an issue with renaming blogs. Staff at WordPress.com will be able to fix your blog. I have tagged this thread ‘modlook’ to notify staff that you are in need of their help. They will contact you here. Please subscribe to the thread.

    Please share
    -the old blog address and the new address.
    -where you changed the blog address from (wp-admin dashboard, new dashboard, or an app?)
