  Here’s another message I get when trying to login:

  Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.

  Someone please help! I don’t even really see a way to contact wordpress help directly

  Please provide the URL of the site that is having the problem so that we can guide you to the best solution.

  From the problem you are having it sounds as though your Site might NOT be hosted here at WordPress.com. If that is true your WordPress version is the one supported at WordPress.org.

  See this document for information on the different versions and hosting environments of WordPress.com and WordPress.org.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
