Re-Activation of my other Blog on wordpress.com despite forgotten Email-Adress?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi dear users && support-team,

    i would like to start over my “old” blog, that I started already a few years ago: kinderarzt.wordpress.com. I already did try to log in a few times and to sent me my forgotten password. The only thing is, I am afraid I used a trashmail or any of those other email-services that have only one-time accounts that exspire. The other possibility is, that i used another Email-Adress, that I also don’t remember. Could it has been (email visible only to moderators and staff) or (email visible only to moderators and staff) ?! Is there any possibility that you could help me. I could also provide you with any other Information that I was the one to register the account ” kinderarzt.wordpress.com ” almost 5 years ago, supported by the fact that I am the one, who unfortunately wasn’t blogging about his work, that started a month before I registered my blog, in which I wanted to write about my work an stuff….

    Would be really kind if I heared from anyone out there that you and I would be able to help me with this problem.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    If you think you still have access to the email connected to the account, you might try using that in the password recovery tool, and be sure to check your spam folder for the recovery email:

    https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

    If you are unable to figure out which email address you used, you can use the “Need more help” link on the password recovery form for further assistance.

    Be sure to look in your email client spam/junk mail filter if your cannot find it.

    Hi
    Can anyone help?

    I had an old blog I am trying to edit. I logged in but the site says I need to be invited in to edit, by the administrator.

    ..but I am the administrator!

    how can I get in to my site to update it?

    thanks for any advice or help?

    You must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog and who is the Admin of the blog to access it.
    Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

    If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
    follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

    You can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
    and if required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery.

    many thanks for the quick response.

    i checked my dashboard but it says I have no visible or hidden blogs!

    I have clicked the “Need More Help” link to complete the form for account recovery.

    hopefully this will help.

    nb my Blog is… debbiehowie.wordpress.com

    is there anything else I can do to log in and edit my old pages?

    Many thanks again for your help…

    Hi debs36,

    It appears that you have two different WordPress.com accounts. The one you are logged into right now to post on the forums is not the same account that owns the blog debbiehowie.wordpress.com.

    You will need to log out of the debs36 account and log in using the username or email address associated with debbiehowie.wordpress.com. If you’re not sure which email address you used, you are welcome to try any that might be possible on our password recovery form, https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

    Thanks Jackie

    Yes I have been trying old e-mail adresses, lots of old passwords etc, but no joy!

    is there anyway you can link me into the blog and make me administrator…

    Thanks again…

    Hi Debs,

    Unless you can authenticate yourself as the owner of the blog, we will not be able to allow you to access it.

    I will send you a private account recovery email to see if there is any other information you can provide to regain access.
