Not receiving any confirmation emails
-
I started a new WordPress account and moved my email from the old one to this new one, and keeps asking me to confirm my account. I ask to have the email sent, but it never comes through, same as gravatar, and although the site isn’t ready to go out I can’t change or post anything at all.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello Phil!
My first suggestion is to check the Spam or Junk filter on your e-mail, as these often get caught in that folder. If you use gMail, also check the “Social” tab, which you can learn about by visiting https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/gmail-issues/
If you still can’t find it, request a password reset e-mail by visiting https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword. When you receive that e-mail and complete a password reset, that will also confirm your account.
If none of this works, let us know and we’ll get the mods involved!

Hi there,
I’ve sent an email to the address associated with your account. Please let me know if you don’t receive it.

I am having the same issue too. I tried resetting my password, but every time I click the link to reset my password I am led to the username page again with a little red notification saying that it is not a valid key. I know I am receiving notifications from WordPress because other WordPress emails are being sent to my server. I’ve checked junk mail and spam on three different email accounts and still nothing.
This is for gabriellewestcott.wordpress.com

I’m not sure why you are trying to reset your password. If you can post here you are already logged into your account. Resetting the password is only for if you are locked out because you forgot your password, and has nothing to do with account activation. A password reset will also only work if you click the link while logged out, not while logged in as you currently are.
I’ve sent you an email to help manually verify your account. Please reply to that email.
