  Hi,

  I want to change the email address which is linked to our company’s wordpress. for some reason it is set to (email visible only to moderators and staff) (my personal email) but i want to change into (email visible only to moderators and staff) (my work address). I went in to setting to do this a while ago but it still says ‘There is a pending change of your email to (email visible only to moderators and staff)’.

  I’ve tried to look online to work out how to sort this and have found suggestions about changing the Database? Something I don’t know how to do.

  Please help me.

  Thanks
  Wilson

  thanks. It’s for http://threesodsbrewery.com. I think that might be on wordpress.org so I’ll have to ask on those other forums.

  You may need to go to the old email account and accept the change to the new one.

  I am currently experiencing the same issue with my organization’s site at https://a2sf.org/. The email change has been “pending” for months and there has been no emails going to the old email address.

  Please help.
