  My site is private and I logged out. Now I cannot log in.

  When I name my site a message tells that is already in use. Yes it is by me! But I can’t log in to it! Its URL is”distant echoes.wordpress.com”. The name of my blog is “Distant Echoes”.

  Can you help me access my private blog. I have had the blog for some time. I have tried everything. I am 78 and it is all getting too much for me.

  Thank you, Gareth Davies

  My guess is you own this blog perhaps under a different username account and may have to recover it.

  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
  and if required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery.
