Wrong email input at account startup

    Hi,

    I also had this problem. I made a typo when I initially input my email address. My email should be kscopeproject[dot]nyc[at]gmail[dot]com, not kscope[dot]nyc[at]gmail[dot]com.

    I tried to “change the email address on my account,” but it wouldn’t let me make the change because I had never “confirmed my account” via the initial email address (which, like I said, wasn’t mine).

    What can I do to fix this so that I can keep the domain name kaleidoscopeprojectnyc on WordPress?

    Thank you!

    Nicole

    PS I’m telling it to “notify me of followup posts via e-mail,” but please remember, my email on this account is not correct! I’ve stipulated the correct one above.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/

    There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.

    The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

    For Issues Changing your Email Address see https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/#issues-changing-your-email-address

    If you cannot locate the email verification check your email client spam filter and if you use gmail or google apps please consult these guides:
