    Hello, I have forgotten both my login email and password for my site I created around 2011. I can’t see where to reset the password on the site. The site is: BrianMulipah.wordpress.com

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

    Hi there,

    You can fill out the account recovery form below:
    https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

    Please fill in all the details(big or small) that you remember and it can help you recover your account.

    Good luck!
    Please write back if you have any questions.

    Thanks!

    I just tried using the form, but can’t submit because I don’t have proof of ownership. However, I think the email I used was (email visible only to moderators and staff). I logged in with it and I do not see any domains on the site. Is it possible for you to check if (email visible only to moderators and staff) has the site BrianMulipah.wordpress.com listed on it?

    Hi there,

    I have added “modlook” tag so that staff can look into it and update you about it.
    Also, please do not provide any personal details like email, contact number etc for security reasons.

    Thank you for your patience while they get back to you. :)

    Just noting email addresses shouldn’t be visible to anyone but staff, so it’s okay to provide those. staff-arya if you were able to see the email address, please let us know.


    @kingbriandee
    if you have access to the email address you listed, can you try logging in with it?

    Hi @supernovia, I do have the email address. But how do I let you know?
    Shall I post it here?

    @Supernovia, yes, I have tried to log in, but I see no sites listed there. It’s got a pop-up telling me to check the jackpack and when I click on it, it still pops up

    staff-arya could you get a screenshot of what you see here, then post it via wordpress.com/media and update us? We can find it that way.

    @kingbriandee can you log out first, then log back in with the email address you mentioned?

    If that still does not work, while logged in, would you also get a screenshot of this page?
    https://wordpress.com/me/account

    Here’s how:

    Take a Screenshot

    You can upload it via wordpress.com/media, or upload via another site and paste the link here.

    This is how you’ll make the transfer:

    My suggestion is to read through that entire guide before you get started. Write to us with any other questions. We will be happy to help.

    @kingbriandee good to know that you could sign in :)


    @supernovia
    , if you still need that screenshot, please let me know. Also just wanted to let you know I could not see the email here in the forum post but I could see it in the email notification I got for this one.

    staff-arya,

    I could not see the email here in the forum post but I could see it in the email notification I got for this one.

    That is a known issue, yes. As long as the email is hidden on the forums post itself, things are working as they’re supposed to.
