Taking over site for work, I don't know username or password!

  • Unknown's avatar

    bgtcra.com is a site made from a wordpress template. We registered the domain on our own. The guy who ran the site took a new job. He gave me the username and password to the site he created on wordpress before the bgtcra.com site. I have logged in to use this forum off that username and pword. I cannot do anything on that site. Any ideas as to how I can get into the site w/o a username and password? I can’t even find a phone number for wordpress that I could beg and cry to a decision-maker there:-( Surely I’m not the first person this has happened to.

    The guy has also blanked out–I still have contact with him.

    Soooooo. . . . .

    Your creative insights are welcome (abandoning the website and starting from scratch is not really a welcome suggestion [nervous cough]). Thanks!

    So, I just received the kind reminder that I didn’t specify the blog address or reason for posting. Um. I read the information about the difference between wp.com and wp.org–that *was* helpful (thanks!). From that info, I deduce we are using wp.com.

    The url to access my website is http://bgtcra.com/–copied in its entirety from my browser. I think the reason is actually pretty well stated in the first entry above.

    Gosh, I hope someone out there has a good idea out there for me.

    Does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you should make friends over at WordPress.ORG – see the friendly supportbot above for the link.
