Previous own blogsite not on my homepage

    I used to have a site under the url of https://hinoriblog.wordpress.com/. The last post was in July 2017. I only have a total of 2 posts. But then I stopped writing for a long while and suddenly remembered I had this blog here and wanted to start over again. So I logged in with the same email, went to my personal account to change some settings, especially the username part, but when I went to my homepage, that previous blog I did is no more under this account. I was planning to re-edit the whole thing. Can someone help me out with this? Is it because I previously deleted it from my homepage, but still available to be read by the public? It’s been 3 years so I can’t really remember what happened.

    Hi there,

    It looks like you have two accounts.

    The meiyichu account you used to post here owns only the site, https://meiyichu.wordpress.com/, which you created yesterday. This account has never owned any other sites with us before, based on our logs.

    https://hinoriblog.wordpress.com/ belongs to a different username account, associated with a different email address. If you own any other emails, you can try resetting the password using those emails to get into the right account (make sure you log out of this one first).

    If it’s possible the account is associated with an email you no longer have access to, then you can find our account recovery options here:

    I’m actually using the same email. I’m sure about this because I wrote them down in my journal. I have a vague memory about deleting that site, and it told me that the site will still remain even after I deleted that. (And I think I agreed to it. Sigh… I wonder what was I thinking back then) Is such thing possible?

    These two accounts are associated with two different email addresses. It is completely impossible for two WordPress.com username accounts to be using the same email address, as our system doesn’t allow that.

    If you had deleted the site, it would be deleted and no one would be able to access it in a browser. The fact that you can see the site when you click on https://hinoriblog.wordpress.com/ indicates that it has not been deleted.

    Ok. I’ll try retrieving it back using the Account Recovery method. Thank you.
