Lost username(forgot) username and which email address I used for a sries of blb

  • Unknown's avatar

    Lost username and correct email address for a series of blogs I had about 4 months ago.
    Blog url: http://lekxii.wordpress.com/

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

    What are the URLs starting with http:/;/ for the blogs in question?

    In order to help you get access to your blog Staff need one of the following things in order to correctly identify you as the blog owner:

    1. an email from the email address associated with the account or revealing what that associated email address was
    2. the wordpress.com API key for your account. This was included in your welcome email with a note to keep it safe. Please do not post the API key here.
    3. if you have purchased any upgrades for the blog a transaction number send it to the email address I posted above.

    This thread is flagged for Staff attention. Please be patient while waiting for their response.

    Help! I have a similar issue. I seem to have two WordPress accounts linked to the one email address. I think it has to do with the initial WordPress.com policy back in 2007 that allowed users to do this. I now want to delete my old blog and although it recognises that the blog is mine on my email address, it won’t let me get into its dashboard. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Please read what I posted above.

    What is the URL of the blog you cannot delete please?

  • Unknown's avatar

    My url is hollymackdesign.wordpress.com

    It may also be that I had a different email address and password at the time. However this email would be closed now, so when I do the ‘forgot password’ steps, it sends an email that doesn’t reach me in my current inbox. Is there a way to change the email address of an old account with only the username?

  • hollym is not a user on http://hollymackdesign.wordpress.com/

    You’ll need to be logged is as the correct user, hollym2311.

    Thanks macmanx. Do you know how I do this if I don’t remember the password and the email address to which hollym2311 is associated is now closed?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Or perhaps WordPress can delete the blog for me? Do you know if this is possible?

  • We cannot delete the blog without confirmation of ownership. In order to confirm ownership, we will need to either receive an email from the address on the account or the account’s API key.

    Thanks macmanx. I seem to have really worked myself into a predicament here. I think what has happened is my hollym2311 account is allocated to an email address I had with a previous employer four years ago and would be closed now. I guess the API key would have been in that mailbox too. Is there any other way around this? At the moment that site is up with personal contact info on that I’d really like to delete. It shows my current email address assigned to my current wordpress account, would that be enough proof/confirmation of ownership?

  • If you can confirm what the email address was along with the month and year the blog was registered, I can make it private, but cannot grant access to it.

  • Unknown's avatar

    Thanks macmanx, can I message this info to you privately?

  • I have sent an email to the address on your account. Please reply to the email when convenient.

    Hello, Have tried to contact you via Support Page but not clear how.

    It appears I entered my email address in incorrectly when I registered a new blog and also paid for the domain globaltruthinternational.com at the same time. See paste below:

    Business Name: WordPress.com (The recipient of this payment is Verified)
    Shopping Cart Contents

    Qty Item Options Price
    1 Domain Mapping for http://globaltruthinternational.wordpress.com
    Item Number 5 $13.00 USD

    The email address I had meant to use was (email visible only to moderators and staff) (because I already have other blogs with this – (email visible only to moderators and staff) address)

    For some reason the username & password I created no longer works and as the email is wrong I can’t fix/re-activate it!

    Help please!!

    Regards,
    Paul
