  Hi there,

  http://en.gravatar.com/yvrtodxb is a link to a Gravatar.com user profile, not a blog/website.

  If you’ve lost your login details for that account, you can follow our account recovery process to regain access – a Gravatar profile is the same thing as a WordPress.com username account, so if you regain access to the WordPress.com account, you’ll also have access to the Gravatar profile again.

  Thanks for the reply.

  This is my original blog site https://yvrtodxb.wordpress.com/
  And this is what I need to access and I don’t know how. When I log into WordPress with my email this blog is not linked to it even though it is registered under this email. Are you able to help with that?

  Thanks
  Kelly

  Hi Kelly,

  That site is owned by a different WordPress.com account that has been created with a different email than the one used for your @khaws81 account.

  Please try all the email addresses you have access to in the password reset form until you find the one matching that account.
