transfer blog back to original owner
-
This past year I some how transferred my friends blog to my blog so overtime I sign in I can control his blog. I also domain mapped his url to got to my url. for example his url was buck90.com and if you typed that in, in went to ukcsnow.com. So what I want to do is transfer his blog back into his account so i can’t control it and also cancel the domain mapping so buck90.com does not go to ukcsnow.com
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
I see that your user account, ukcsnow, controls two WordPress.com blogs:
ukcsnow.wordpress.com
buck90.wordpress.comYou also own one domain mapping upgrade, ukcsnow.com , that points to ukcsnow.wordpress.com.
So what I want to do is transfer his blog back into his account so i can’t control it
I’d be happy to transfer the blog buck90.wordpress.com to another user account. Please confirm the username to which you’d like to transfer the ownership of this blog.
and also cancel the domain mapping so buck90.com does not go to ukcsnow.com
The domain mapping upgrade for buck90.com is owned by another user, but does currently point to ukcsnow.wordpress.com. To transfer that domain mapping to be associated with a different WordPress.com site, like buck90.wordpress.com, I’ll need to have that requested by the upgrade’s owner.

Hey Alex, thanks for your help I can’t seem to figure out a solution for what I want to do on my own. So the username of the blog I don’t want to control is Buck 90 Productions. I want to transfer it back to SteveLauder. I have forwarded this conversation to his email so he can confirm and request the transfer

Hi ukcsnow,
I apologize for not observing this earlier, but in the process of transferring the blog ownership, I noticed that while you are an administrator for the blog buck90.wordpress.com, and an owner of an upgrade, the actual blog owner is another user.
The owner of that blog is the user filmerd. filmerd will need to request any ownership transfer.
That being said, user stevelauder is also an administrator user on the blog already. And as such, can perform most any action on the blog. See this article for more details:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/
No action would seem to be required regarding user roles on buck90.wordpress.com, unless you also control the user filmerd. You also have the option to remove yourself as a user of that blog if you wish.
I’ll keep an eye out for any correspondence from SteveLauder requesting the domain transfer.
Best,
-Alex G.

How does stevelauder get in contact with you? He can’t seem to post anything in this forum.

Have him log into WordPress.com, then visit here:
type anything into search field, but then select Contact Support when this pops up:
This will bring up a contact form to reach us. Since he owns an upgrade, he can use the Private option which will be answered more quickly by our staff.
Best,
-Alex G.
