I can't edit my profile

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello
    I had my wordpress account for a long time, I used at first but with time I moved to my own server, using wordpress but at my own server and domain. I added that blog here at wordpress as my primary blog.
    Some time ago I had a blog that I closed and now deceided to come back to wordpress and start blogging here and I have my old blog (wich domain I don’t own anymore) set as primary blog, I can’t edit it and I can’t edit my profile because it asked me to login at my old blog control panel.
    I can’t delete this blog from my account or edit my details… I’m not sure if I should create another wordpress account and just forgive about that but I don’t like that this blog it’s linked to my account because now it’s some kind of spam site, and I can’t delete the account!
    Any idea?
    Thanks!

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

    Forget the custom domain name, what was the WordPress.COM URL of the blog, like http://raincoaster.wordpress.com ?

    I want to had my blog at wordpress now, the problem it’s a long time ago I added my custom blog to my profile as primary blog and now I can’t edit it and I don’t own this blog anymore.
    Now I can’t edit my profile because I’m redirected to bellsoffreedom.net and not wordpress.
    I just want to delete this site and set a blog hosted here as my primary blog but I can’t do it.

    We cannot help until you post an active link starting with http:// to the .wordpress.com blog you refer to.

    This it’s the blog I want to use: http://asukavalentine.wordpress.com/

    And I want to delete bellsoffreedom.net as my primary blog.

    It’s not clear from the answers above, so I’ll be straight to the point: your WordPress.com dashboard and your self-hosted WordPress dashboard are separate.

    To edit http://asukavalentine.wordpress.com/ , you need to sign in at http://asukavalentine.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

    Yes, I know that… I try to explain it again.

    The problem it’s not edit my wordpress blog, the problem it’s that if you look to my avatar (left) my nick it’s pointing to a blog hosted outside here, a blog that I closed last september and now it’s owned by someone else.
    I can’t edit this information because I can’t edit my profile. When I started this blog (september 2005) I added it to my wordpress account as my primary blog, at this time you can add blogs you have hosted at your own server but using wordpress.com.

    Now if I want to edit my profile here at wordpress.com I’m redirected to this blog wp-admin panel (which It’s not mine anymore) and I can’t delete from blog list because I don’t have the option for do anything with it.

    I just want to delete this blog from my profile and don’t have my account linked to this site. I can’t make asukavalentine.wordpress.com my primary blog because it’s not working.

    And I want to know how to fix it.

    This is a link to the WordPress.com Global Dashboard, more specifically the part where you can change whatever site your username links to.
    http://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=grofiles-user-settings

    Scroll down to a box labeled “Website”. Edit the information and click on “Save Changes”.
