  i have several blogs and I want to be able to have different names when I post on each of them. For example, my main blog is travelling crone, which I would like to use that name when posting to that blog. I started a new blog, cronecrap and would like to author posts under that name. How do I do that? If that’s not possible how to I not have an author name visible?

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

  Hi there.

  Blogs created under the same account will all link back to the same username.

  If you want a different username to display for each of your blogs, the best option is to create separate accounts, each with a unique email address and your chosen username. Once you have created a new account, you’ll be able to transfer ownership of the relevant blog to it by following our guide here:

  Let me know if you have any extra questions around that.

  Thanks for your quick response.
  So I have already set up the cronecrap under the travellingcrone… so how would I go about changing that?

  You would first need to sign up for a new WordPress.com, with the cronecrap username. Once this has been setup, you can transfer ownership of your site from travellingcrone to the correct account:
