  Hi,

  Google is showing https://vlmnl.wordpress.com/leiderschap-in-logistiek/ but we’ve moved on from that site years ago to https://vlm.nl (wordpress hosted by Transip).

  As we have the login info from the original admin on WordPress I tried logging in as her but it says user unknown so now I’m stuck.

  I want to delete the site https://vlmnl.wordpress.com/leiderschap-in-logistiek/ but in order to do that I’d need to either get help from WordPress or reclaim the login.

  What’t the best way forward?

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

  Thanks but then the only option is to request to set it to private. However it doesn’t say where/how I can do that.

  If there’s personal information on your blog, you may request that we set it to private so that search engines and users can’t access it.

  Please send an email to passwordhelp (at) wordpress (dot) com explaining the situation, and we’ll see if there’s anything we can do for you.

  Thanks!
