  I cannot access my dashboard or my blog. I can login just fine, but when I try to access my dashboard or my blog Chrome times out and I get “can’t access this site” message. Please tell me what I can do to fix this. I have changed my password. Also, I cannot login to my admin through stillagrrrl.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  Thank you.

  I could not access the dashboard either today. I had read that stats were going to be on the wordpress.com homepage, so I expected some changes, and today is the day when those changes occurred it seems. I run my mouse over where it says ‘Blog’ and it says I can access the dashboard by clicking on the link with Blog written on it; but when i clikc on Blog, i just get that same page where I was at and I am not getting access to the dashboard.

  oh, I clicked on where it said ’19 posts’ and that took me to the dashboard. 19 is how many posts I have written all time by the way.
  I write about trapped-crushed foot injuries at my blog:

  There’s an issue with creating posts on the front page of WordPress.com that will not be fixed until the next upgrade. Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/

  Instead I recommend that you ONLY create posts here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html
