    Hi there,

    When you are signed into your site, do you see where it says My Sites at the top left of the screen? If so, click Add next to Pages. More information can be found here:

    Create a Page

    I’m not sure if you are referring to the older WP admin dashboard, but you can just add /wp-admin to the end of your site’s URL if so.

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks, but where you said it just says ‘create site’ and yes I do mean the older version, as I have had this site from 2013,
    I must be log in because where the face icon is it says ‘me’

    Is this the correct URL to your site?

    https://northwalshamgardeningclub.wordpress.com/

    If so what happens when you click below?

    https://northwalshamgardeningclub.wordpress.com/wp-admin

    The top link is the website but the bottom one says this, [below], I have never been that user name, an username widgetwilk,
    must be something to do with my email address, as I have two,
    (email visible only to moderators and staff) and (email visible only to moderators and staff)

    User annwidgetwilk Cannot Access the Dashboard Requested

    I would sign out and try logging in with your other email address, as you are not in the correct account associated with this site. I have included the link that walks you through a password reset, just in case.

    Recover Your Account

    Hope you are able to get logged into the correct account. :)

    I think it has worked, I have changed my password completely, have my fingers crossed, will work on it later when it gets a bit cooler.
    thanks for your help.
