Linking account
-
Hi! I wanted to link my new email address to another account – and when I did the process created a whole new account. I need assistance to resolve this issue. I didn’t want a whole new account, I merely wanted to update the email address to the other account.

Hi @anniesweetgoodse684f9c23a, this will take a few steps. We can work with you one step at a time if needed, but here is the overview:
1. Get this address out of this account. You’ll need to change this address to an alias:
https://wordpress.com/me/accountFor example, instead of
(email visible only to moderators and staff)Use this:
(email visible only to moderators and staff)You can make that +1, +whatever, +doesnotmatter … whatever letters or numbers make the most sense to you.
2. You will receive an email to confirm the change. Click to confirm.
3. When that’s done, close the account:
4. Log into the correct account, using the username and password
5. Change to this email address
If you get stuck, let us know which step you’re on and how we can help.
