  Hi! I received information on how to switch the site to a new admin, although I am not the creator of this site. The creator Jennifer Kierzek, (email visible only to moderators and staff) told me she cannot login anymore therefore cannot change this and does not want to keep receiving notifications anytime something changes or is updated. Can you help me do this? You may email Jennifer as well to get her permission if needed, I’m trying to do this because of her request

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  We did have an account under that email address, but they deleted it yesterday, along with the site it owned.

  What is the URL of the site you’re trying to transfer?

  You were made owner of that site 3 years ago.

  Were you trying to transfer it to someone else? If so, you can by following this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  OK awesome! Thank you, I thought so. Jennifer kept telling me she was still owner and was still receiving correspondence. Sounds like we are all good – Thanks for your help!
