Ownership Transfer
-
I want to give site ownership to a different Admin, but I’m unsure of which directions to follow. Will my third party theme and plugins transfer, as well? (I already sent them the domain and the hosting account, so I just need to transfer ownership through here to disconnect myself as a user.)

Jetpack: Yes
Correct account: Yes -
Hi there!
Please note that your site at legalswfl.com is using the WordPress.org software and is hosted by Siteground. We aren’t able to provide direct support for sites using WordPress.org as this forum is for WordPress.com sites. If you aren’t sure about the differences, please check out this page: WordPress.com vs WordPress.org.
Generally speaking, adding someone as an administrator to the site gives them full access to do anything — including managing the themes and plugins. However, as far as the ownership is concerned, you’d have to contact your host (Siteground) about it because the ownership is managed through an account you have with your host. You will likely need to transfer the account to the new owner.
We have our own ownership transfer process outlined here, but you won’t be able to follow them as your site isn’t hosted by us. So please contact Siteground support and ask them about this so that they can help you with this.
Regards
