  Hi, some time ago I founded a blog and invited several authors to it, although would like to remove myself from there now. When I mark myself in the ‘Users’ menu and click ‘Bulk actions > remove’, it says

  ID #3713869: tornike The current user will not be removed.
  There are no valid users selected for removal.

  So how can I remove myself from the blog without deleting the blog itself?

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

  P.S. I have all authors of the blog marked as admins.

  Hi. I believe you’ll have to ask another administrator to remove you.

  If you need further assitance, contact staff directly:

  If you are the original blog owner I think you will need to transfer the ownership to another user before you can be deleted from a site. It is one of the security things that WordPress.COM does.
