Two accounts with the same email; can’t access old blog
-
Hi, I need help recovering access to an old WordPress.com site.
Years ago, I created a blog (dissolvingintomolecules.wordpress.com) using my email and password (possibly via Gravatar or WordPress login). Recently, I accidentally clicked “Continue with Google” using the same email address, and WordPress created a new account instead of logging me into the existing one.
Now I can only access this new empty account, and I’ve lost access to the original blog, which is still online and active. I believe there are now two separate accounts using the same email.
Is there any way to recover the original account or merge the two accounts? I’m the owner of the email address used for both.
Thanks in advance! :)
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

WordPress.com accounts can’t have the same emailaddress as the emailaddress is the unique identifier on this platform.
The site you mention is connected to another account of yours https://wordpress.com/forums/users/rafamb91/
Just log out from current and log in again with the username rafamb91 (not with an emailaddress!)

Oh, thank you! I couldn’t remember which username I had used. It worked, and I was able to log in again. Thanks <3
