  How are WordPress.com and WordPress.org related. I have tried and tried to apply for a WordPress.org account. I finish the process and i get a reply on the screen that I will be sent a password in a few minutes. It has been three weeks now. I tried again a week ago. I do not understand. I have solutions to some of the questions in the WordPress.org Forums, but I cannot log in to give them. I have had no problem whatsoever getting an account with WordPress.com.

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

  The blog you specified at takeahikesocal.com does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

  They aren’t really except that they are both part of Automattic.

  WordPress emails sometimes get caught in ISP email spam filters. Check your email spam filter at your ISP to see if the email was caught.
