  On wordpress.org I have two different user names for different activities. Now I would like to change the blog ownership of one blog from one user to the other.
  The reason is that when people follow my blog, I will receive this information in the wrong user account.
  Is there a possibility to change the owner?

  Thanks
  Per Eric

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

  Thanks!
  It worked!
  Only the followers are gone, but I guess it will take some time to process.

  I believe they should be retained. I’ve flagged this thread for a moderator to look at to help resolve the issue with the followers. They may need to be transfered by a staff member.

  The transfer shouldn’t affect followers at all.

  What is the URL of the blog you moved?
