    I used the wrong user name and in my attempt to fix it, must have created another account with the correct username but it doesn’t have any of my posts. How do I combine the two?

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there!

    Can you let us know the URL of the site where you’re having this problem? Once we have that information, we’ll be better able to advise.

    Thank you!

    Wordpress.org, unless you are asking for my website that I use wordpress.org to maintain?

    We just needed to know where you created the “two usernames” to determine whether or not we can help.

    To avoid confusion, there are three different “WordPress” at play here:

    1. The free, open-source WordPress software which powers your website.
    2. WordPress.org which is the open-source project that works on the WordPress software and where you can get the software for free to use on your own hosting provider.
    3. WordPress.com which is a managed hosting provider of the WordPress software and with whom you’re contacting now.

    We would have no ability or access to affect user accounts over at WordPress.org or on your own website using the WordPress software, so there’s nothing we can do in this case.

    I’d recommend reaching out to the WordPress community for guidance:
