merging accounts
-
I signed up for a WP blogging course. I entered my email and created a password. On assignment #1 when it asked us to start our new blog, I tried to pull up my existing site that I have had for 9 months and it would not recognize it. It is hosted through bluehost. Does anyone know how to merge the course account and the bluehost site?

Hello there,
Happy to help you with this.
Are you able to tell us the URL of the site that was created previously please?
Many thanks in advance.

Your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with Bluehost.
Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
https://wordpress.org/support/ is a great resource for sites using the open source WordPress.org software, and you can find support for that at: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
With that all that said, if you do want to manage it through your WordPress.com account, that is one of the features offered by the Jetpack plugin: https://jetpack.com/support/getting-started-with-jetpack/
