 * Hi last friday I spoke to godaddy who host my blog site and changed my address
   from [http://www.sallyslackblog/wordpress.com](http://www.sallyslackblog/wordpress.com)
   to [http://www.sallyslackblog.com](http://www.sallyslackblog.com). Godaddy assured
   us that doing this was very simple and wouldn’t create any issues. Since doing
   this it’s been a nightmare and my admin platform no longer seems to speak to 
   wordpress, my site stats are down, the mast header slideshow doesn’t work and
   the sliding sidebar widgets don’t work either, any thoughts would be greatly 
   appreciated!

 * I assume your URL is NOT
    [http://www.sallyslackblog/wordpress.com](http://www.sallyslackblog/wordpress.com)
 * rather
    [http://www.sallyslackblog.com/wordpress](http://www.sallyslackblog.com/wordpress)
 * is that correct?

 * my url is now: [http://sallyslackblog.com/](http://sallyslackblog.com/)
    but 
   it used to have “wordpress” in there somewhere. Since loosing the wordpress I
   have had major issues. Go Daddy are suggesting that i rebuild!

 * No need for a rebuild
    You can put the blog address back to how it was using 
   one of the methods on this page -> [http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL)
 * and then change it to how you want it by following the instructions here
    ->

 * Hi Sally,
 * It looks like you have gotten some helpful information from your peers. The articles
   that @cubecolour posted should solve the problem you are describing. ^Courtney
