    Can a user manage multiple WordPress websites from a single log-on?
    I’ve inherited the role of updating two sites, each of which as a unique login and are hosted on two different servers. I am now considering remaking my own 20 year old HTML sites with WordPress. I have several domains and don’t want to have separate accounts for each.

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

    Hi Ken, if you have login and admin permissions to other WordPress.COM hosted sites you wish to manage, you can invite others, including yourself, to be contributors to that site, including administrator. Once you have sent the invite to your preferred account you wish to manage the other sites from, activate it via the email link (make sure you are now logged into your preferred account) then you will be able to directly switch between accounts from your main account.
    For more info on inviting people please check this link out

    You mention that these other sites are on different servers which suggests to me that they are WordPress.ORG sites, in which case you can still manage these sites from your WordPress.COM admin panel as long as they have the Jetpack plugin enabled and configured, for more info on Jetpack please check out these links:

    If you wish to import from an old HTML site you can find some useful info here:

    https://transferto.wordpress.com/

    If you need help with this, I suggest starting a new thread with details about your old sites so you can get focused help with it if you require it.

    Hi there,

    All of what @acesabe said stand correct. Can you please give me the addresses of the sites you want to manage under one account so I have a better picture of what you’re trying to accomplish.

    Thanks!
