Deleting my wordpress account

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there, I’m trying to delete my wordpress account which is attached to the email (email visible only to moderators and staff). I have recently created a new wordpress account and blog which I now use but I would like to correlate with the email address attached to my old one – the email address just cited. However I can’t figure out how to delete this site I’m currently on. Thanks in advance, Ashley

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

  • Hi aroy3,

    Follow these steps from: https://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/#reusing-email-addresses

    If you want to use the new account with the same email address, follow these steps:

    1. Log into your current account (the one with the email you want to use).
    2. Under your Account Settings, change the email address on the account. You can use any active email that you have access to. This will free up the primary email for the new account.
    3. You’ll receive an email to confirm the change. Click on the confirmation link, and log out of the account by clicking on the Sign Out button in the sidebar of the Me section.
    4. Sign up for a new account with the primary email address.

    If you already registered the new account, repeat step 2 while logged in to the new account to change the email address on that account too.

    Note: It may take some time for our system to completely release your e-mail address for use with another account. Please be patient, but if the delay seems longer than normal, please contact support for further assistance.</quote>

    Hope this helps!

    Cheers,
    Adeline
