  Hi there,

  A million years ago, I had a WordPress blog page at https://carolineschiff.wordpress.com/.

  I would like to access it, and delete it. However, WordPress does not recognize either of my emails. I would definitely have used one of them to create it. Nor, does it recognize my username.

  How do I get access to this old site, to delete it??

  Thank you!

  Hello there,

  Happy to help you with this.

  What username have you been trying exactly? The reason why I ask i because it looks like there’s an author under: https://carolineschiff.wordpress.com/author/carolineschiff/

  In the event the accessed in some cases, we can set the site to private.

  Hi,

  This is a new WordPress account that I just created in order to get access to the Help Forum.

  It does not connect to my old, 2013 blog https://carolineschiff.wordpress.com/

  That is what I need a username and password for. So I can delete it forever.

  I have tried both my email accounts but neither gets recognized.

  Does that make sense?

  Caroline
