  Hello! I have two WordPress accounts — an old one, and my current (this) one. I would like to close my OLD account, and have given my CURRENT account Admin privileges for the sites on my OLD account. However, when I go to close the OLD account, I get a message saying that these sites will be deleted. How can I close the OLD account, but keep the sites attached to my CURRENT account?

  Hi @scotthorsington, you’ll want to transfer site ownership to the current account. Here’s how to go about that:
