How do I locate the administrator of my blog?
-
We’ve lost track of the administrator e-mail for our blog. How can I recover this information?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
Go to > Dashboard > Users > All Users and note the email address for the Admin there. http://go2marine.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php
Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and associated email address. The blog owner and original Admin of the blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator can transfer ownership of the blog to another username account http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account and/or assign other user roles.

Thanks for the quick reply. I’m in the dashboard and there doesn’t seem to be a selection for users.
When I go to the link you posted the page just says “Cheatin’ uh?”
-
The cheatin uh message only appears
(1) if you are not logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator
and/or
(2) if you don’t have third-party cookies enabled on your browser.
Without cookies, you won’t have the proper credentials to make changes to your blog and some of the features will not be available to you. Would you please make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled? http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/ -
You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access all the functions and features in the blog’s dashboard.
Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibilityIf you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
Your last resort for obtaining access is to complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery with as much information as possible and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.
