  I got a message from WordPress today about a message that had been posted on my site. I’m either unable to get to my dashboard in order to monitor my site or the format has changed so significantly that I don’t know how to navigate it. HELP!!!!!!!!!!! Send message to (email visible only to moderators and staff)

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

  This site is empty. https://margothreeves.wordpress.com/

  The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:

  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  * You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.

  http://margothreeves.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  I don’t have a blog with a name. I have a website, http://www.margotsloan.com. I want to edit some of the pages on my website but I can’t get to admin page.

  A blog is a website. The difference between blog and website is simply structure and semantics. However, that site is not hosted here.

  margotsloan.com is hosted by Dreamhost
  WHOIS: Click Here
  IP Address: 208.113.249.249
  Name Servers:
  ns3.dreamhost.com
  ns2.dreamhost.com
  ns1.dreamhost.com

  We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.

  You are posting to the wrong support forum.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  As you are referring to a site that is not hosted here, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.
