merging user accts
-
I have an account as a contributor on a page created with WordPress, and I was wondering if I could merge the two?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
Staff will need to help you with this, I’ve flagged for their attention :)
Cheers

Hey there! As timethief mentioned, we’ll need to know the two accounts you want to merge.

Hi Shawna,
I created gaiusmarcushex to gain access to the main WordPress page, but I have a login on FiveShards.com under the name GaiusMarcus. Any chance I can have GaiusMarcus everywhere? -
Hello! Your username here is already gaiusmarcus. You can create a WordPress.com site using the address gaiusmarcus.wordpress.com here:
https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/
Just make sure you’re logged into your WordPress.com account when you visit there and you can create that new site on your account.
Does that clarify things? Let me know if you have more questions!

I think so. I’ll give it a try. Do I need to do anything about gaiusmarcushex? Will I need to redo my gravitar?
-
Your Gravatar is associated with your email address, not your WordPress.com site. If you don’t need a website, you don’t need to create the new one. Currently this is your Gravatar profile:
http://en.gravatar.com/profiles/gaiusmarcus
Let’s start over a little bit. What is your goal right now? What are you trying to have happen? Is the wrong Gravatar image appearing on a site? Do you think you have multiple WordPress.com or Gravatar accounts?

I’ve registered on a site to comment. Some of what I posted had merit and I have some experience as a copy editor and the next thing you know, they want me to edit posts for them. The site where I am now a contributor had me create the gravitar, and as long as its associated with my email and not my user name, its all good.
In the meantime, I created gaiusmarcushex to have access to the toolbox and processes for a WordPress site. I don’t actually need it, but since I made it, I figured I’d link the two if possible.
Does that help any?

I’ve registered on a site to comment.
Which one? What is the exact URL of that site?
And exactly which username account did you register to do that with?
-
This username account exists:
http://gaiusmarcushex.wordpress.com/This username account does NOT exist:

RATS! I posted the wrong link above:
This username account exists:

so what is this then?
https://gaiusmarcushex.wordpress.com/It’s a blog ie. a website that was registered under this username account https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/gaiusmarcus
-
in the final analysis, I’m probably making a mountain out of a mole-hill, since it seems i already have mostly what I want…

Would you like to make it private so you can use it in the future? Deleting it is permanent and irreversible so I don’t recommend that but making it private is very easy to do. To change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings

It sounds like you should be set up the way you need for the editing work you’re doing on that site.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
