  Hi
  There are several blogs I helped to create for friends of mine, the above being one of them, and I would like to remove myself as admin, but I cannot seem to do this. Please can you remove me from the following blogs:
  lightpath8.wordpress.com
  beingdivinelove.wordpress.com
  divinehealingwithmary.wordpress.com
  Thank you so much! I receive emails every time someone comments and the other admin does not. Which confuses me!

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

  If you registered the blogs under your username account then you cannot simply use the leave a blog option in these cases. http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#leave-a-blog

  Every blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the username account who registered the blog under that username account and associated email address.

  To transfer a blog from one username account A to another username account B you must first log in under the username account A that owns the blog you want to transfer to the other username account.

  Then you add the other username account B as an Admin of the blog.
  adding users http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/
  user roles http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

  Then you A can use this process to transfer the blog to that username account B instead http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

  The other person is already admin on the blog. I don’t fully understand how to transfer the blog to another user. Can the same URL be used?

  Are you the person who registered the blogs under your username account or not?

  Yes they are all registered under my username. I’m looking now at this page, but I cannot find the ‘transfer blog’ option. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-wordpress-com-user-or-account

  Sorry I found the link and I have removed myself as a user and administrator. Will the other admin person now receive the emails?

  Are you logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog?

  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.

  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

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
