I accidentally started an account

  • Unknown's avatar

    I just wanted to like another bloggers content. My content is here: docmolly.com. I thought I was using username docmolly, but see I accidentally entered docmollu and I do not want to start a new wordpress site. Do you have any recommendations re: how I could fix my username and connect my profile with my current site. Thank you.

    Okay… I think I successfully changed my user name to docmollyspanish.

    Is there a way to redirect my account from docmollyspanish.wordress.com to docmolly.com? I did not realize when I started the blog, it would not allow me to make my primary site something else. Thank you!

  • Hi there!

    To clear up any further confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. We, WordPress.com are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites whereas WordPress.org is a stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

    You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this support page:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Now, your site docmolly.com is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with another company. If you’d like to connect your site to your WordPress.com account, you’ll want to install a plugin called Jetpack:
