    I created my blog site with you in 2014, but I haven’t renewed it for the past couple of years. Having decided to restart it, I tried to get into my own site today to post new articles, but in vain.
    Could you please tell me how to get into my own site? Tne URL of my page is https://grampsflicked.com/, my user name is Grampsflicked, my address is (email visible only to moderators and staff). I’m sorry I’ve misplaced the email I received from you telling that I paid the fee, but I certainly did (I hopw you can check it out).

    The URL of my blog is https://grampsflicked.com/. I can get access to this site all right, but I can’t “get into” the site. I want to revise my previous articles and add new ones, but I can’t. Could anyone please explain why I’m unable to do it? Also, please tell me what I should do to make it possible. Thank you.

    Hi grampsflicked,

    you can login to your site by going to:
    https://wordpress.com/log-in
    You need to give your email id and password there. If you have forgotten your password, there is a link “Forgot your Password?” to get an email to change your password.

    You will need to use the email that you used for signing up.
    Do read this helpful guide to get started: https://en.support.wordpress.com/start/

    – bests,

    Hi Grampsflicked,

    Are you signing up with the same email id/username as the one used to create the site? May be there are more than one users or email ids connected to the site and the email/username you are logging in with may not have the admin access.

    Thank you for your advice.
    I tried both <https://wordpress.com/log-in&gt; and < https://en.support.wordpress.com/start/&gt;. I was able to log in, but that was all. My site still remains unaccessible. All I can do is “see” the site, but I can’t edit it in any way.
    Is there any reason for this? I wonder who owns the site now and who pays for it. Since my contract is automatically renewed, I’m not very happy to have to pay for such a site until I die or even afterwards 😊.

    Hi there,

    You are posting here logged in as the username, grampsflicked080218. This account was registered 8 hours ago, so right before you created this forum thread.

    The site you’re trying to access belongs to a completely different account, grampsflicked

    You need to log out of this account and log in as grampsflicked instead to post to that site. If you can’t remember your login details for the grampsflicked account, please see our account recovery process here:

    Thank you for your reply.
    Following your advice, I was finally able to log in as grampsflicked, and to my pleasant surprise, I was actually able to revise my old article.
    However, when I tried to revise my other twelve articles, I couldn’t get into the editing page. I’m sure I’m very close to a complete solution, but there must be something I’m lacking in. I’d appreciate it very much if you’d inform me of what you think I lack.
    Thank you again for your great help.

    If you’re logged into the correct account you should be able to edit all posts on the site, from either of these links:

    https://wordpress.com/posts/published/grampsflicked.com

    https://grampsflicked.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php

    If you can access those pages, but the editors won’t load, it points to a browser problem. What browser are you using? Please try clearing the cache and cookies, and if that doesn’t work, see if a different browser, especially the newest versions of Chrome or Firefox, work.

    After clearing the cache and cookies, I was finally able to edit all my previous posts and create new ones.
    I’m so grateful to you for your tremendous help. I can’t thank you too much.
