  I set up a blog on wordpress.com several years ago. Most recent post dated 3rd of November 2015. I was able to log in through the wp-admin of that blog (http://thelamplightersblog.wordpress.com) and now I can’t log in, I can’t do anything with that blog and I AM THE ONE WHO CREATED IT! When I try to go into the wp-admin for that blog I find myself in the wp-admin for another wordpress.com blog that I am also an admin for. When I try to pull up “My Blogs” the lamplighters one does not appear in the list. WHAT GIVES??? I need to make a post tonight and I can’t log in to the right blog!!

  Hi iskyesilverweb,

  When I try to go into the wp-admin for that blog I find myself in the wp-admin for another wordpress.com blog that I am also an admin for.

  Are you the owner or http://thelamplightersblog.wordpress.com/ admin?
  If you happen to be the admin, the owner may have removed you from his site.

  Happy blogging!

  I am not only the owner, I am also the creator of the blog. No one else was set as an admin.

  Hi there,

  Please make sure you are using a browser and version found at http://browsehappy.com or upgrade if required. If you are using one of the browser versions found then log out, clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies and then go to http://thelamplightersblog.wordpress.com//wp-admin to login.

  The Admin login link for the dashboard of every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.

  You have to 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 the blog’s dashboard.

  Clicking this link should display all 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-visibility

  If the log-in information is lost visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

  If you are not successful gaining access to the blog then please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery 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.
