  Hi there,

  Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host mg-rosary.com on our WordPress.com managed hosting.

  To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions. You can learn more about the performance and security benefits of our managed hosting here: https://wordpress.com/hosting/

  Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at Bluehost. Specifically we use a custom login system on WordPress.com for enhanced security, and because of this our procedures for regaining account access do not work on sites hosted with other providers.

  The good news is that as long as you have access to the server control panel through Bluehost, it is always possible to regain access to your self-hosted WordPress site. This WordPress.org support article will walk you through it: https://wordpress.org/support/article/resetting-your-password/

  You can ask Bluehost for direct assistance in completing the steps in that article; they would be in the best position to help. After you have restored your site at Bluehost to normal working order, you are welcome to migrate your site to our WordPress.com managed hosting by using this plugin.
