How do I merge accounts?

    I have (2) websites titled financialfreedomwithfriends.com. One is a blank website, the other is a theme that I’ve been editing/building.

    I am only able to access the blank website. How do I log into the account with the theme that I’ve been working on and delete the blank one?

    I think I have (2) separate accounts. How do I cancel or merge them?

    Thank you for your help,
    Lori

    This is the wordpress.COM support forum. We provide support only for blogs hosted here like http://financialfreedomwithfriends.wordpress.com/

    Note that http://financialfreedomwithfriends.com/ is not hosted by wordpress.COM. It is a wordpress.ORG software install hosted by Hostgator and we do not provide support for it.

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

    WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

    Do you want to import your content into the wordpress.COM hosted blogs and purchase a domain mapping upgrade?

    re: mapping an existing domain
    WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible.

    Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made, it and the domain mapping purchase here, each and every year.

    Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually and a domain name purchase and domain mapping are included in the Premium upgrade bundle.

    In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com sub-domain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL.

    If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the WordPress.COM blog, and as you own a domain URL already, you can see here for mapping an existing domain. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    It can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.
