I made a blog (WordPress.com, naturally ) in June 2011 and completely forgot about it. I recently visited it as I think I've been hacked because what was originally a draft has been published. I've been trying to access it using my email addresses but to no avail. Also, interestingly, according to WordPress, said username no longer exists BUT when I google it, or when I type it on my URL, I am able to read it.

I've asked WordPress for help on this one twice but as I am unable to retrieve more supporting evidence that the blog in question is indeed, mine, I think my call for help fell into deaf ears. :(

In summation, if you've been in this situation, or have any idea how to fix this, please share your knowledge. And if you must teach any moves on hacking, do explain it in simple terms as I am quite illiterate when it comes to codes, strings and whatnot.

Thank you very much and I hope that those who have similar problems will be able to get answers.

Login okay, but on what I would call the access page, the middle section is missing, the section that held my photo and the link to the dashboard. The bar above that section with six or so options is there, but when I click on "stats" or on "my blog" nothing happens. My account was just automatically renewed a few days ago, said so in a couple of emails from wordpress. Maybe that message didn't get through to the right place? Thanks for any suggestions. A nice "don't freak out" would be greatly appreciated.

I'm asking because the way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers. Also note that the main dashboard isn’t designed to work with touch devices through the tablet and smartphone browsers.

(2) Exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you don’t know click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/

Duh that don't work.

when i setup my blog last night at o dark 30, i must have mistyped the email address as I never got an email from WP and when I went back to login I could not get in to the blog. How can I even have an active blog without having verified the email address?

when I tried to retrieve the user/password I was told it was invalid user or pass.

I have proof of ownership in that I own the domain and I payed WordPress to have the domain mapped. so now I am caught in some kind

of limbo of having a blog but not being able to access it.

Thanks for any help

Actually, I had copied the link I sent from the address bar. And when I clic on the link I sent I have absolutely no problem downloading the blog.

The friends I sent the link to are in France or in the same country as me and most of them work in the communication branch or are independent. This problem concerns too many people to link it to a company strategy I think. My friends also have no problem reading other wordpress' blogs... this issue only happens with my blog. What I don't understand.

Go to your front page of your blog and then copy the link in your address bar and send that link to them.

Also, if they are trying to look at it from work, some companies will block certain sites and such via their firewalls.

There are also some countries that block wordpress.com. China has been known to block wordpress.com entirely from time to time.

I checked it with a friend and I don't know why, but he doesn't manage to download the blog. I have myself absolutely no trouble to see my blog.
