Email recovery used to register wp-account

    I’m writing this using my first wp-account, which contains no active web-pages.

    The thing is, that I made a second account, where my current web-page is located. Now whenever I try to check out the web-page, a pop-up window tells me to log in, and that the site is under maintenance, which I myself have not initiated.

    The web-page in question is http://www.swikks.com

    What I’ve done lately to log in to my site, is that I’ve gone to http://www.swikks.com/wp-admin, and from there, used “admin” as a username and my password. But I can’t use admin as username when I can’t access the site itself.

    Is there anyone out there who’s got any idea how to solve this issue? I’m thinking the only way I can do so, is to find out which email address I used to register the account, so I can recover the username. But apparently that is impossible?

    Cheers!
    Sincirely, a hopeless newbie.

    You are posting to the wrong support forum. We do not provide support for any sites except those hosted by WordPress.COM.

    swikks.com is hosted by Domeneshop
    WHOIS: Click Here
    IP Address: 194.63.248.52
    Name Servers:
    ns1.hyp.net
    ns2.hyp.net

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins (passwords), features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.
