    Hi,

    I can’t login to my blog. I can log in to wordpress.com and it welcomes me with my username but when I try to login to my blog it tells me the username in incorrect.

    I have tried mailing support but no luck or response so far. Any ideas on what I can do? I really need to get on there.

    Thanks.

    Annette

    This support forum features your fellow bloggers who voluntarily answer questions posted here. No volunteers have backend access to blogs – only staff do.

    We provide support only for wordpress.com hosted bloggers. Your blog does not appear to be a wordpress.com hosted blog, unless you removed the blue top worpress.com navigation bar against staff/admin wishes.

    In any event, volunteers cannot help you, even if you do have a wordpress.com blog – only staff can.

    I can’t seem to get through to a staffer though. Can you tell me where I can do that?

    Thanks.

    That’s not a WordPress.com blog, so the staff here won’t be answering you. Try the WP.org link that Judy gave you to find a solution for your independently-hosted blog.

    The login for your blog and for WordPress.com are different. They look the same, but they’re not; one is on WP.com servers and the other is on your own server. Be sure you’re signing in to your own blog, not WP.com, where that blog doesn’t exist. You’ll never find it if you sign in to WP.com and try to go from there. Go to your blog and sign in from that point. I’m not sure what the exact link is, but you can try http://www.biscuitsbylambchop.com/throwyourdogabone/wordpress/wp-admin and see if that lets you sign in.

    I recommend you install the meta widget in your sidebar so you can sign in with one click. It’s easier.

    Something odd happened yesterday and I can’t login using Internet Explorer anymore. The login page loads fine but it’s no longer interactive. I can click whatever I want but nothing happens. I tried the clear cookies and caches, still nothing. I am not a computer genius so please help with simple answers.
