    I started a blog called My Shumei Years, with the user name myshumeiyears.com … I have changed the page title to ‘When Opportunity Knocked’ – I want to change the user name to ‘opportunity knocked’ – how do I do that? Thank you

    Hi –

    I’ll be happy to take a closer look at this. There’s over a dozen blogs on your account though. Are you able to send me a link to the ones in question here? I didn’t see myshumeiyears.com in our system anywhere though.

    Here’s how you change a username:

    Thank you Liz. I have an umbrella blog called Killyblogs – that’s where I keep, as a kind of index, links to my blogs and Facebook pages. A couple of days ago I started a new blog called “My Shumei Years” – I was instructed, under the title, to create a “username” that looked something like this … username@…. – I had no idea what that is or what it’s for, but I typed in (I think) “myshumeiyears@ etc” – this is the link that was created: https://wordpress.com/view/myshumeiyears.wordpress.com … Yesterday I changed the title to “When Opportunity Knocked” and I wanted to change the “username@ …” from “myshumeiyears” to “opportunityknocked” – I spent a couple of hours last night going through the WordPress help site and Youtube, and could find no answer to my dilemma. I tried the link you suggested, and I get the same thing: WordPress keeps telling me how to change KILLYBLOGS. But I don’t want to change Killyblogs. I want to change When Opportunity Knocked. Is that possible? Thank you!

    By the way, I’m going to start reducing all of those blogs to the essential few. I want to see about monetizing the “Yankee in Meso-America” blog, and may even spin that off to be a “,org” website once I figure out what the heck I’m doing. I’m confused even about that, because there are a bunch of plans and upgrades – which do suggest that I use? I wish that there was somebody I could TALK to! I that not an option?
    Thanks so much for reviewing this for me! Best regards, Killy

    Hi there,

    I’ve already explained to you how to change your username in that other thread of yours:

    https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/changing-wordpress-com-blog-user-name-to-match-new-blog-title/

    Please note that the username change will be universal and the changes will be reflected on all of the blogs under that same account.
