    I suddenly have no admin access to my own blog. I can’t post or get into any settings. My blog is visible, just can’t do anything to it. How do I get back in????

    You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

    This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. If your question is about a self-hosted WordPress blog then you’ll find help at the WordPress.org forums.

    If you don’t understand the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you may find this information helpful.

    If you forgot to include a link to your blog, you can reply and include it below. It’ll help people to answer your question.

    This is the link to log-in to the blog linked to your username
    http://griffbme.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

    This is the log-in link found on that blog that redirects visitors to
    http://icecoldfries.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

    Both of these links open to error messages that state that I do not have admin access to my blog.

    I will flag this for staff attention. A number of people are having similar issues.

    http://icecoldfries.wordpress.com/ does not belong to your antblog account.

    You’ll need to log in as the correct user, griffbme, to access it.

    macmanx, you are right. I was able to get in as griffbme. Thanks all for your help. A little confusing coming back to the blog after a few absent months.

    Cheers
