  I’ve had MindMindful up for 16 months or so. At one point, I started a 2nd one, but have taken it down. Today, I started another, FeedingPeace.

  Here’s the problem: MM – as a working blog – seems to be gone. I can still type in the url & call it up, but it doesn’t have the dashboard, etc. FP is the only one listed up in the upper right. When I had the 2 blogs before, they & another one I contribute to would all show up their; I could switch back & forth.

  When I started FP, I erred in not going to My Blogs > start a new one (on MM). I started it from the wordpress start-a-blog page. But shouldn’t MM still be an active blog also?? I did not want to delete MM.

  Where did I go wrong??
  Blog url: http://feedingpeace.wordpress.com/

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

  Yes, that is my update. Changes started just today, 9/11.

  I see now that I CAN access the dashboard. But this question still remains: under Manage My Blogs (hovering over blog name in upper right corner) only the new blog (FeedingPeace is listed). Where is MindMindful?? It should be there, right?

  So, NOW my original blog (MindMindful) is ‘back’ along with the one I contribute to. I can access them, through the dashboard, etc. This is a good thing:) — I only wish I knew who to to thank, & which gods to propitiate.

  But now, the issue has morphed: the NEW blog (FeedingPeace) can be found (url in a new tab) but I cannot access it. There’s no way to get to the dashboard, etc. It’s as if it is someone else’s blog, that I can only read & follow.

  What I WANT: Is for all 3 blogs to be accessible, together. I mean, so that all 3 will be listed in the same Manage My Blogs. What’s the best way to make this happen: Do I delete the new one, starting over from My Blogs > Start a New One?? (I realize I’d have to use a different name.) Sacrifice a virgin at the altar of Blogzilla??

  Whatever I did to create this bit o’ chaos, I heartily repent.

  Thanks, giddygoat, for your help!

  Did you use a different email to start your newest blog?

  @ 1tess — yes, I did use a different email. Is THAT what caused this embranglement??

  Thanks to 1tess’ question, I have discovered that I can just sign into 2 different ‘accounts’ — one has the original blog & the one I contribute to & the other is the new blog.

  I can live with this, (though I’d PREFER to have them all in the same Manage My Blogs. Is there a way to do that??)

  Thanks for all your help!

  You can do that, transfer your newest blog to your other account with the two blogs:
