Cannot access my site

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have had a poetry blog with WordPress for many years.
    This week when I try to access it, the page comes up but tells me I have no WordPress sites and will not allow me to access or to post.

    https://rosross.wordpress.com/

    I logged out and in again and no luck. I have not changed my computer. I have not changed anything. What is going on?

    Hi there,

    Please make sure you have logged in correct account.
    It might be possible that you would be having another account so you are not able to view your site under this account.

    “rosross” Is this your login id by any chance?

    Thanks.

    I have had my site for many years. The password is remembered by my computer. I click and it logs me in. That still happens but I cannot post anything and it tells me I have no sites.

    I have been directed to this site. I saw these posts. They did not solve my problem. If I was posting on two sites it is because WordPress made no response and this public forum has proved to be of no use.

    I would like an answer and I believe WordPress should supply it. I have had my site for 7 years. I have a lot of material published there. Now, all of a sudden I can access it but I cannot post on it. I tried to find a way around that and ended up with the same site and a different web name which will post but none of my seven years of work comes up on that site so it is useless.

    How do I reactive my original WordPress site?

    I did what you said and it did not work. Rather it seemed to create two accounts. One has now been closed. I have not had a response from WordPress and still have no idea how to reactivate my seven year old site and make use of hundreds of posts of my material.

  • Hi there,

    That poetry blog is owned by a different WordPress.com account than the one you’re currently logged in. If you don’t remember the password for that account, you can use the password reset tool:

    https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

    Don’t use the email address found at https://wordpress.com/me/account as that’s the email associated with your current account. You need to enter the email address you used to create your other account.

    Hi, did not work at first but did some more fiddling and I have the site back. Many thanks. I had changed the email address years ago and not made a note of the change. Hence the confusion.

    Although what was strange is that I had done nothing else different, and had automatically accessed that site and then, as of last week, I accessed normally and it would not let me post. Gremlins.

    Anyway, password change seems to have made a difference. I have now carefully noted the email address and password in case the gremlins return.

  • That’s great! Feel free to reach us again anytime!
