  I thought I successfully activated my account via e-mail (I was brought to a page that indicated as such), but all subpages from my blog (e.g., “about,” “leave a comment,” etc.) just reroute to a “signup” page that says “Invalid Activation Key.”

  How do I fix this? Please help!

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

  So glad I’m not the only one. I created my blog today. Started with a test and when you click on ANYTHING it goes to the above mentioned page.

  Same issue, the pages work for me when I type in blogname.wordpress.com/pagename, but when I click the links they have signup.wordpress.com/activate/activationcode#/pagename hard coded in them.

  I’m sorry this is happening. Perhaps it’s a good time to take a break from the computer and find something else to do for a few hours.

  @imadridbenito
  Trust me when I say that if this issue had been resolved the pages of threads would have all been updated to say so. As it stands I suggest that you take a comnputer break for a few hours and then return. Hopefully, Staff will have fixed this by then.

  I’m having the same problem. I think it has something to do with the permalink of the pages. My blog is http://mermaidbutterfly.wordpress.com/ but the permalinks of everything i create is something crazy like https://signup.wordpress.com/activate/a0437f77f3984f8c/xxxxxxxx

  It would make sense for my permalinks to be something like mermaidbutterfly.wordpress.com/xxxxxxxx
  but for some reason, it isn’t.
