Connecting my account with my blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi WordPress. its been awhile since I signed in and for some reason my blog or website that I made in the past does not seem to be connected to my account.

    Home

    This URL is a blog I made but doesn’t seem to be connected anymore. So I cannot edit or update the URL site in anyway.

    I also had another website I made which seems to have disappeared altogether. That may have been due to not paying the yearly fee to have it without ads I believe. anyway any help would be appreciated

    Hello there,

    That’s odd. If your site is still online, then you should be able to edit it. Are you sure you’re using the right account? I see blogposts dating back to 2016 on the site, yet this account was created in 2018. Perhaps you tried to log into this account:

    Let me know if this helps.

    Yeah I guess that must be the case. I did try other email addresses I have but they didn’t say an account was made with them. Maybe I previously signed in through Facebook or something. But even then it should just use one of my other email addresses. It’s also strange that it’s saying this account was made in 2018 when I could have sworn I made it in 2016 towards the end of my uni studies. Maybe I accidentally made an account under this current email at some point instead of logging in with my old one and just forgot about it.

    Anyway thanks for the tip and apologies for asking a question when it’s probably entirely my fault for me not being able to log in to edit the URL site I posted. Thanks for the pointer though and I will try some other potential ways of getting the account back and working 👍

    Absolutely no worries, everyone today has a lot of accounts and it gets very hard to keep track of them.

    You should read this guide to get you going on the right track towards recovering your account:

    Best of luck!
