    I am another account’s administrator and is new to this blog.
    I accidently change the WordPress path on ‘Settings’ page of that another account from the current ‘URL‘ to ‘URL/home‘. and this results me got the hyper link of login as this: ‘URL/home/wp-login.php’, which give me no CSS login page and never get through the login process, and I lost the access to that another account.

    Email to ‘Support’, and so far no response.
    I think, it’s simply just remove ‘/home’ of the WordPress path that I added. right?
    Can someone help?

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

    Makes me think you are in the wrong forum which would account for the slow response from “Support” since you might be asking for help about a site not hosted on WordPress.COM.

    We need the URL of the blog in question to provide you with accurate help – the site linked to your name is one day old and empty.

    You might also review the information below:

    The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.

    This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/

    I will go to WordPress.ORG and ask people over there.
    But, I have no access to my .org account now.

    I am back becuase of this:

    Before you post, make sure you’re posting about a self hosted WordPress.org site and NOT a WordPress.com site. If you’re not sure, read WordPress.com vs WordPress.org.”

    my friends have a blog call <u>http://Womens.ColumbiaLAX</u&gt;.org. we are actually using WordPress.com with our own domain by selecting “.org”.

    how do I access some of my php codes/pages or can I just add some hack lines on the source that brwoser generated?
