  Hi,
  I tried logging into my account this morning with my usual admin username but found that the username was invalid. When I requested a password reset, the username appeared to have been changed. I am not aware of this change of username. What could have happened and how can I ensure my information is safe?

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

  @steffyamondi can you confirm what account you’re logging into? Your steffyamondi account has not been changed.

  I am trying to login to my admin. The primary admin account I made. And the login username for that account has been changed.
