switching blog owners admin stuff
-
Hi there,
My friend Tammy created a wordpress site https://3principlesforfamilies.org, but no longer wanted to run it, so she asked me if I would.
I said yes, and she added me to the admin for the site. However, I have not been able to change her email for my email. This means that whenever someone completes the contact form on the site the email goes to her and not me. Could you help me change this? Also, I am the one now paying for the site address and doing all the behind the scenes stuff, so changing all official details to reflect that would be helpful!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
but no longer wanted to run it, so she asked me if I would.
If Tammy no longer wants to own the site, they can transfer ownership to your WordPress.com account:

However, I have not been able to change her email for my email.
An email address can only be associated with one WordPress.com account — you won’t be allowed to enter an email address you are already using. If site ownership us transferred to you, you will be listed as the owner and won’t need to update the email address manually.
Tammy can also transfer the domain to your account using these instructions:

Once you are the domain owner you can manage payments. If the domain isn’t transferred to you, Tammy will need to do so.
whenever someone completes the contact form on the site the email goes to her and not me
Yes, the form is sent to the email address on the WordPress.com account. When you are the owner of the site, the form will send to your email address. In the meantime the email address can be updated manually:

Come back to me if you have any questions.
