Changed email, confirmed email, can't log in with new email

    The title pretty much sums it up. I want to create a new page with the email I had used with my old page. I changed the email in settings, and it shows up as the new email after I confirmed it via the link sent to the new email.

    — I can not login to my old blog with the new email even though it displays the new email in the settings.

    — I can also not create a new account with the old email because it says it’s used.

    Is this normal? Does it just take time to process this through the system? Or can I actually not use my old email to create a new page?

    Thanks in advance.

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

    If the “old” blog is not the one linked to your username then please post an active link starting with http:// to the blog in question. I have flagged this thread for Staff attention.

    Yes, the “old” blog is the one linked to my username.

    I have not yet created the new blog because I would like to use the email that was used to create this one, but I’m getting the error message.

    Thanks again.

    When we register a username account here the email address we provide becomes our unique identifier. When we are logged into WordPress.com and register a blog it’s registered to that username account we are logged in under and to the email address which is our unique identifier. We can register as many blogs as we wished and provided we are using the same username account then all the blogs will be registered under it and the associated email account.
