  You’ll find some clear steps on changing a password here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/.

  If you’re trying to change your username, I found this article that will show you just how to do that.

  I wouldn’t recommend posting your password in a public forum like this. It would be a good idea to change it as soon as possible. I’m going to flag the staff to see this, so your password can be redacted from this thread if you don’t get a chance to change it before then.

  Actually, let me correct myself. Your site is hosted with Bluehost. Excuse me for not checking ahead of time. Unfortunately we can’t help you in this forum with that issue.

  @thebud15 If you answer a forum post or come across a forum post where someone has added their email (in a way that the forum software doesn’t redact it), phone number, address, passwords or any such type of personal information, including receipt and transaction numbers, please MODLOOK the thread and add a tag “remove personal info”. Thanks for your help!

  @justjennifer thanks! I was about to but then didn’t when I noticed it wasn’t a WordPress.com site. But I see the value in your recommendation. Appreciate it!

  Thanks @thebud15 – since these forums are scanned and indexed by search engines, it’s doubly important. :)
