  I am helping a friend set up her blog and it ended up being linked with my account. How can I move her page (pioneerbossbitch) to a separate account for her?

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

  Hi there,
  You log out and then register another username account under a different email address. Then you transfer one of the blog to it.

  To disassociate blogs currently registered under the same username accounts see here for step by step instructions http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/08/14/separate-username-accounts-separate-blogs/

  OK I helped create her account and got the instruction to verify via her email, but now it has all disappeared and she has no email from wordpress.

  Hi there,
  What is the URL of this site>??
  What is the username account you registered to transfer it to?

  There are a couple of separate issues here and it will be easier to sort this out if we work with them one at a time.

  I see that the site in question (https://pioneerbossbitch.wordpress.com/) has been created. That’s the first step.

  The next is to get your friend to create an account is davisoncella your friend’s chosen username? If so, I’m not seeing an account for that name yet. If she wants to create an account, but doesn’t need a site (beyond the one you are going to transfer to her) She can create an account from here.

  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  Once that’s done we can go to the next step.

  If she has created a user account, please let me know the email address she used to register. Only you and WordPress.com staff will be able to see the email address in the forum.

  Once we get that step taken care of, we’ll move onto transferring site ownership.
