  The original mail adress that is linked with the administrator account get’s now all the wordpress notifications. I would like to change that to a different mail adress, because someone else is gonna host my wordpress site (she is administrator as well), but I still wanna be administrator with the original account. How do I change this?

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

  Thanks for the quick response. Still got a problem, because the mail adress that I want to change it to is already in use (its the same mail adress that the other administrator, the one that is gonna host my wordpress, is using at the moment. That way I can’t change the mail adress in my account settings and in the all users page.

  I can send you screenshots with the error messages if you like.

  Hi,

  It seems that you need to sort out your emails then, re assign them or make a new one.

  As that’s not really a ‘wordpress issue’… as I mention, you seem to want a new email as sharing email addresses is too tricky with wordpress I would think. I’d get the new administrator to change her email…
