  Hello,

  I am trying to export the posts and content from a secondary sub-blog. This sub-blog only has a contributor as the user, so I cannot export from there.

  I tried inviting someone as an admin from the main blog, but when I switch to the sub-blog it still has only contributer as the user role.

  Is there any way to export the posts from this secondary blog?

  Thank you!

  Hi,

  Please provide the website address (URL) of the “secondary sub-blog” that you are referring to. Are you referring to WordPress.com sites? This forum is solely for issues regarding WordPress.com accounts and websites.

  If you are referring to a WordPress.com site:
  I don’t think it’s even possible for a WordPress.com blog to have the only user being contributor. You’re saying there is no administrator? Are you saying that you are the owner, but aren’t listed as an administrator at the Users page?

  Hi, thanks for the replies.

  The sub-blog is: https://store400inc.wordpress.com

  The main blog is: https://sdstores.wordpress.com/

  It’s set to private, so I’m not sure how much info you’ll be able to get.

  It makes no sense, if I log in as the admin on the main blog, and switch to the other blog, it lists me as a contributor. And since there is only a contributor there is no way to invite someone as an administrator.

  It looks like it was set up incorrectly when the sub-blog was added.

  Note: i’m the developer for this site, they recently contacted me to try and migrate it.

  Thank you!

  Hi UPS staff: I work for ZD Design. Todd was contacted by you.

  It’s legit! I’ll have Todd contact you.

  Sorry for the misunderstanding.

  Thanks for your post upsstaff.

  There is a sole owner of every wordpress.com blog and it is the person with the username account who registered it under their username and associated email address. They are the original Admin and if they follow recommendations they would never choose to create a second Admin. https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/
