Word Press Won't Accept Password
-
I registered for Word Press through Gravatar. I can log into Gravaar. But when I want to comment on a Word Press posting, I can’t log in and it doesn’t recognize my user name or email so I can’t get in.

Howdy,
It looks okay from our side. Can you try resetting your password here?
-
Hi Chris – Thnak you for your help. I was able to reset my password using your link. I can now log into WordPress. However, when I go to comment on a blog on WordPress it rejects both my user name and my email with the new password.
-
Hmm — can you send me a link to the blog post you’re trying to comment on?
Do you see any errors when you try entering your info?

Hi Chris – This is the blog I was reading:
http://blogs.agu.org/mountainbeltway/2016/06/27/faults-2/To reply to Callan’s post I have to log in here:
http://blogs.agu.org/mountainbeltway/wp-login.phpRegardless if I am using my user name or email address, I get this error message:
ERROR: The username or password you entered is incorrect. Lost your password?Thankyou

Thanks for providing those links.
blogs.agu.org is a site using the standalone WP software and it appears that your WordPressdotcom log in would not work on that site.
Looking at the site I see there is a “Create an Account” on the sign in page here: http://blogs.agu.org/register/
Hope that helps. Good luck and best wishes

Just in case it wasn’t clear, standalone WP and WordPressdotcom (where we are) are separate entities. You can read more about that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thank you just jennifer – That did the trick after a couple of hours for them to incorporate my login. Didn’t realize there was a difference. Thanks too for sending the explanation.
