locked out of blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    I got locked out of my blog and couldn’t even log in here until just a minute ago. How can I get back into my blog. It is not accepting the username and email combo asked for to retrieve password. I was sure I had the pass right but tried retrieving since it wouldn’t accept. Not sure how it finally let me in HERE.

    Thanks in advance!

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

    How would I be able to have a log in here if it wasn’t? Please, can use some help. I cannot log in to the blog, only here! Can’t log into .org either.

    In the source code for your blog, it says this <meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.2.1" /> which indicates your blog is NOT a blog hosted here at the wordpress.COM free hosting service, but a self-hosted blog on a third-party hosting site using the software from wordpress.ORG – a really, really, really, really old version of wordpress.

    You need to do as the supportbot suggests and head over to the wordpress.ORG forums for help. That is where self-hosted blogs are supported.

    And you really, really, really need to upgrade to the latest version of wordpress since the version you are using has big security issues and it is only a matter of time till someone hacks it and you could very well lose everything.
