Linking two seperate blogs to administer through one dashboard. Is it possible?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there. I have two wordpress blogs with different names and login details. How can I manage both of them under the one login and dashboard? When I try the “My Blogs” there is no way to link them. Is that possible at all. Many thanks

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

  • Hi there. It’s possible. What you’ll need to do is add Username A as an admin on Blog B. Log into Account B and go to Users ->Invite New and invite Username A (Admin or Editor, depending how completely you want to manage the other blog from that account). Then log into Account A, go to that account’s email, and accept the invitation. Now if you go to My Blogs in Account A’s dashboard, both blogs should be listed there. Make sure both blogs are set to visible, and they’ll also both appear on My Sites and in the admin bar drop-down menus.

    If you create a post on Blog B while logged in as Account A, in the classic editor you’ll see the Author module (if you don’t see it, click on Screen Options and activate it), which will allow you to control which account appears as author on the post. However, when replying to comments it will always show the name of the account you’re logged in as, regardless of which blog you’re commenting on.
