  I didn’t update or log in to my blog for a few years. It is still online, but now, when I log in, I can’t make any updates or changes. There is nothing on the dashboard but profile setings, wordpress news and an option to create a new site.

  Can anybody help?

  Update; it now says that I don’t have any sites when I log in, but I do have a site and it is online.

  Any suggestions on how to fix this would be very much appreciated :)

  Thanks.

  What is the full URL of the site you need help with? This account is only 8 months old so it was not around when the old blog was created

  Sounds like you are not logged in with the correct account

  Thank you so much for sending the recovery link!

  While searching for the activation key to fill out the recovery form, I realised that I had initially linked the old blog to a different email address (it’s been a few years since I used it).

  Thanks again!
