I have looked in the forums and Support site and I have found information that comes close but doesn't completely cover what I need to know.

What I need to do is this: change the URL of an existing blog to be the URL of a new blog I want to set up but to keep the old blog running with a new URL. Clear as mud?

In my wordpress account, I currently have one blog called Dangerous Meredith's Adventures in Jianghu which has the URL http://dangerousmeredith.wordpress.com

I want to keep this blog going but with a different URL (I was thinking of http://meredithinjianghu.wordpress.com). I want to set up another brand new blog called Dangerous Meredith and I want this brand new blog to have the URL http://dangerousmeredith.wordpress.com.

These 2 bogs will be about different things but I want it to be obvious that they both belong to the one author. Is there any way I can swap these URLs over without losing my precious older blog and its subscribers?

Thanks in advance

Meredith
