How To Change Your WordPress Blog Name
Changing your WordPress blog name is not difficult, but it does require a few steps. The first step is to open your WordPress admin area and navigate to the Blog Settings page.
On this page, you will see a field labeled “Name.” You can enter the new name for your blog in this field, and then click the Update button to save your changes.
If you want to change your blog name without leaving the WordPress admin area, you can also use the wp_options function. This function allows you to change a variety of settings in your WordPress blog, including the blog name. To use the wp_options function to change your blog name, first activate it by entering the following code into your WordPress blog’s header:
// Activate the wp_options API function
define(‘WP_OPTIONS’, true);
Then, add the following lines of code to your blog post or page:
?php
wp_options( ‘name’, ‘new_name’ );
The new_name parameter should be the new name for your blog, and the default value is “blogname.com” if no other value is specified.
Clicking the Update button will update all references to the old name in your WordPress site and launch them using the new name.
