  I’m trying to setup an account. I’ve received the activation email and clicked it, which loaded a wordpress page saying successful. But when I try to create a page it says my account is not activated. I have repeated the entire process and I get the same result. How do I activate my account and create pages?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  When I click on the wordpress confirmation email I get this message:

  —
  Your WordPress.com account has been activated!
  Thanks for confirming your email address.

  You created your WordPress.com account while signing up for Gravatar, so you’ll likely want to head back there…

  It seems I originally signed up for Gravatar. When I click the Gravatar button it says that my account is not activated. I searched my past emails and found a confirmation email from Gravatar, which when clicked gives me the following error:

  Invalid activation key.

  Gravatar gives no options to resend the confirmation email.

  Could someone please tell me how to activate my account?

  It’s a similar issue to this: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/i-cant-publish-anything-on-my-blog?replies=3#post-2498812

  except that I have received the confirmation email and clicked it.
