  Dear Support,

  i created some years ago a wordpress blog at rondrigan.wordpress.com. The blog is still visible to the outside world, but when I log in I cannot access and administer it anymore.
  Did something significantly change or did it happen due to inactivity? I would like to still administer my blog if possible.

  Thanks a lot,
  Brazoragh

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

  Log out of your account you used to post here (all the way out of WordPress.COM) and go to here: https://rondrigan.wordpress.com/wp-login.php

  That is the log-in page for the lost blog – you can request a lost password – you will need the email or user name of the old blog

  If that does not work post back here and the staff can help you more

  Thanks a lot for the immediate feedback!

  I did request a new password, changed it and could log-in again at: https://rondrigan.wordpress.com/wp-login.php. Nevertheless, my account and my blog seem not to be connected.
  All I can do is to create a new blog.

  The first time I tried to login my admin site, wp told me that the dashboard is not visible for me and I should request the admin of the blog (which is me :) ).

  Any further ideas, as I still get redirected to: https://wordpress.com/wp-admin/user instead to my blog’s administration site.

  Thanks!

  I flagged this for the staff to review things

  If you created the first blog with a different account than you are using now they will not be connected – you would need to add the new account to the old blog or transfer the old account to your new account – but you do need to get into the old blog to do any of these options

  Ok, thanks a lot.

  I created the blog with this exact same account I tried to login with today.

  Hi there – the site rondrigan.wordpress.com is managed by a different user account than brazoragh – you’ll need to log in with that username, and not brazoragh. Could you try that and let me know if you’re able to get in?
