taking myself of sites where I am oone of two administrators
-
I am an administrator on 60 sites which I used for educational purposes but I need to remove myself from them because I am supposed to help with another 60 this year. It’s seems absurd that I can’t take myself off as an administrator please help make this possible
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
If you’re an administrator on a site and you aren’t the site’s creator, you can leave the site from your My Blogs page here:
https://wttf2015.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs
You can hover over the address of of the site you want to leave, and click the “Leave Blog” link that appears there. That will remove you from the site.
Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)

This doesn’t seem to be helping much at all, and I just end up going round and round. There only seems to be half the info. The link mentioned doesn’t come up for me to hover over, and what makes it worse to follow is the constant interchange between blog and site that WordPress insists on doing, so you end up not knowing. This is not making me love WordPress.

What site are you trying to remove yourself from?
If you created the site, you’re the site’s owner and can’t leave it. You can, however, transfer the site to someone else (if you want the site to stay available for others) or delete the site permanently (if you no longer need it).

I am a lecturer and have been an administrator on almost 60 sites that I want to hand back to the students and they need to become independent now.

Can you give me an example of a site that you are trying to remove yourself from where those instructions aren’t working? That will help me provide more detailed instructions and troubleshoot if it’s not working correctly.

All the sites are private sites used for a specific module at the university. For example ashleepariswttf2014.wordpress.com and bethconduct94.wordpress.com and there are many similar ones

Thanks for those examples. Since you are not the owner or creator of those blogs, you can leave them from the My Blogs page here:
https://wttf2014.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs
On that page, in the Address column, you will see those sites’ addresses. If you hover your mouse over the address, the “Leave Blog” link will appear underneath it. Here’s an image to show what I mean: https://cloudup.com/cG5S-xx3-CG
When you hover over the site addresses on that page, do you see that link appear? (Be sure to just hover, not click on the address itself — that will take you directly to the site instead of showing you the option to leave it.)
If you don’t see the link there, can you let me know what kind of device (computer) and browser you’re using? That will help me troubleshoot this issue for you.

Many thanks for the advice and it seems to have worked. I will have to ear mark this because the same will happen next year if we continue with WordPress and I will have forgotten the process by then
Thanks again -
I’m so glad that worked for you! If there’s anything more I can do to help at this point, please let me know. :)
