Signed up for username & blog; have only Global Dashboard

I signed up for a username and a blog (yes, I did double check to make sure I signed up for both) but all I have is a Global Dashboard. When I type my url, I get a blank page. When I sign in, I get the Global Dashboard with NO “My Dashboard” button in sight. I also tried typing the url to My Dashboard, but it didn’t work — took me to Global. My primary blog is listed as: dashboard.wordpress.com

Any ideas what’s up or how I can fix this?

Also, I have 2 other blogs — when I sign in for this third blog, it sometimes takes me to one of my other blogs, even though I haven’t added this username to those blogs.

Thanks!

I am having a similar problem on a private blog sti2007. I am trying to invite users (Users>Invites, selecting both “add to my blogroll after signup” and “add to my blog as a contributor”) and once they join, they don’t have my blog listed on their dashboard. They only have access to a global dashboard and can’t go anywhere or even type in the url of the blog and get access. Only one person has been able to successfully create a username and have my blog automatically added to their Dashboard. thanks for any help you might have.

I’ve read those FAQs and I *think* I’m following the directions correctly for inviting users….what makes this confusing is that one of my invitees has successfully been added to my blog with 2 different email addresses. The other invitees have had the issue I described above. Very sad because I need to invite about 20 people.

Unless another blogger comes up with a suggestion, it sounds like you will have to send a feedback to staff containing all pertinent information.

Best bet would be to send in a feedback from your dashboard with your URL as well as what is occuring. Please be as specific as possible.

I have similar problem – on my global dashboard my primary blog is reading :
Primary Blog: dashboard.wordpress.com
is there anyway of updating to recognise that my primary blog (and only one) is http://bijouxandbanter.wordpress.com/
Many thanks

If you go to User => Profile it should give you a dropdown box for your “primary” blog :)
