How do I change admin email address. Each time I try, i hit a dead end.
-
I have not been able to successfully change my admin email address. I am trying to hand the blogging responsibility over to someone else, but the profile is still associated with my own email address. I’ve gone through the steps several times with two different addresses, and in neither case has an email been received at the new addresses from wordpress to verify/complete the change.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Changing the email address on your user account is not the best way to have someone take over contributing responsibilities for your site.
If you just want someone else to take over contributing to the site, you can add them as an Editor by going to Users -> Add New from your site’s dashboard. Here’s User Roles explained in more detail:

If you want to transfer complete ownership of the site to someone else, you would need to follow the instructions listed here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-accountPlease review those steps before you proceed. Transferring a site will remove you from having access to the site and you will no longer control this site. Use this step if you never want to have access again.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
