  My login is not going to my normal wordpress blog (smfootball.net) but the last time I logged in, there was no site found it asked me to start the 4 step process of setting up a new site. I tried changing the URL in the profile and it created the above URL. I just want to get back to the site for which I paid the mapping for smfootball.net. How do I do that?

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

  Hi @kenjacks33292014,

  Your site smfootball.net is a WordPress.org website, and if you want to log into this site please visit this link:
  http://smfootball.net/wp-admin

  There is a difference between WordPress.org sites and WordPress.com sites. The reason you weren’t directed to smfootball.net when you logged in earlier, is most probably because you logged in to your WordPress.com account. This would not take you to your site, since that site is a self hosted WordPress.org site.

  To learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, please check out this support article:

  Please let me know if anything seems unclear =)

  I logged in to WordPress.org admin and although I couldn’t recover te content, I knew I was in the right place because all of the stats were there. I appreciate your setting me on the right track. Thank you again.
