  I just signed up for a WordPress account. I accidentally typed the wrong letter for my email and username which currently is (email visible only to moderators and staff). I meant to have: (email visible only to moderators and staff). How can I change it? I tried to do it throughout he profile page and it said it was already taken but not sure if it was mine or not. Thank you.

  Can you tell us what username this signup was for, or was it your uogavida4u account?

  (email visible only to moderators and staff) is already the email address on your uogavida4u account. It looks like you were able to successfully change it.

  As mentioned above, ” (email visible only to moderators and staff) is already the email address on your uogavida4u account. It looks like you were able to successfully change it.”

  Did you want that to be something else?

  My email is fine. Thanks. However, the username of the account is not what I want. Instead of “uogavida4u” which occurred as a mistype when I signed up, I want it to be “yogavida4u”

  Thanks for your assistance!

  As, sorry for misunderstanding.

  You won’t be able to change your username to yogavida4u as that name is already taken by the blog.

  Usernames can only match blog names during the initial registration.
