  Please help me. My new blog was established a week ago. I already have a few posts for my blog, but now, I cannot post. I have tried the email address, (email visible only to moderators and staff) or then she retired to log in. I changed the password. Yet, all it says is that I don’t have a blog to post on. In the beginning, I put in $26 to name the blog. I forgot what else. Anyway, I want to post, but it won’t let me. Please show me what I am doing wrong. Thanks!

  http://sheretired.wordpress.com/ is mapped properly to http://sheretired.com/ – note there are no spaces in a domain name

  When you work on your blog you will log into the http://sheretired.wordpress.com/ Dashboard – visitors will see http://sheretired.com/ in the browser address bar

  I log in: http://sheretired.wordpress.com/Dashboard and get:

  “You don’t have a blog. Would you like to create one?”

  I also get, “404 Page does not Exist.” And then under this, there is a list of the blogs and photographs I had posted in the past.

  So where is my blog? Has it disappeared??? How do I get to it so that I can post like I did before?

  That’s not the right link at all. This isn’t Tumblr. :)

  The correct login link is http://sheretired.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Okay, so I used the link, http://sheretired.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php, and here’s the reply:

  “You are logged in as THENSHERETIRED and do not have the necessary privileges to access the dashboard for SheRetired. If you are not “ThenSheRetired,” please LOG OUT, and log back in with your user name. If you are THENSHERETIRED, you will need access, please ask an administrator of the site to INVITE YOU.”

  I assure you that I am THENSHERETIRED, and I didn’t expect on having all these problems.

  So how do I get in touch with a WordPress Administrator so that I may be invited to post on a blog that is already mine??? Or maybe I should reset my account and start over???

  Two different usernames:
  1. SheRetired

  2. Thensheretired

  Note also > http://sheretired.com/?ref=spelling

  Log out, clear your browser cache and cookies and login under the exact same username account that registered the blog.
