Username taken but inactive since 2011
-
Hello!
I want to choose a username that is already in use however i checked the user’s page and it hasn’t been active in the past 8 years. Is there any way to get access to that username or contact the user in case they no longer want to keep the same username?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Usernames are connected to the user who registered them and cannot be reused if the user is inactive or deletes their account.
If you’re looking to use their site name WordPress does not recycle or reassign inactive sites. You can find more information at https://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-site-address/#reusing-other-site-addresses
