Transfer .wordpress.com blog to another user
-
Hi all,
I would like to know if there is any way I could transfer a .wordpress.com blog to another wordpress used completly.
Say, I have everyday2day.wordpress.com with jeygokul as owner. Can I transfer it to some other user X totally.
Would a deletion of blog and recreation with same name for different user would work??
Thanks,

To answer your question Add the user as a admin
then have them remove you from the blog then
they will have 100% ownership after removing you. -
Hi teck07,
I am sorry, probably I did not explain it all.
I have added the new user(as Administrator) to whom I wanted to move the blog to. When he tries to delete my id from the users, he is getting a error saying
“You don’t have permission to remove this user.”
This is what made me come to the forum. I think I am missing something minor here.
Thanks,

Hi teck07,
Sorry to bug you again…Is there some other way to mark as user as “admin” other than assigning the Administrator role?
I checked for some other options till now, could not find it…

It’s no longer possible to remove the original owner of a blog without staff intervention. Please contact support, they can help.

@tellyworth-if so, this FAQ needs editing.
http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/07/22/how-do-i-transfer-a-blog-to-someone-else-another-name/If I understand correctly then, assuming a user has more than one account, they also can’t transfer any blogs they run between their usernames without Staff intervention?
