Can’t Log In To www.ads-software.com blog with supplied info

    Hi there.

    I’ve been trying for HOURS to find answers through the forums and following tips and am now pulling my hair out!

    Question 1: When I log in to my blog I see the login feature under Meta, but when I use the login information supplied via email, I get an error message. This information supplied to me will only log me in to the Codex Support Forum. So, I currently have NO way to log in to my new self-hosted blog.

    I am TRYING to transfer my WordPress.com blog to my new www.ads-software.com blog. The domain name has changed. I don’t want to redirect and use domain mapping.

    I NEED to get logged in so that I can access the Administration Page because I want to change my Permalink info to match what is being used on my WordPress.com blog before the upload.

    I have exported my WordPress.com blog and want to upload it to my new blog. I have a host and have already uploaded WordPress 2.6.

    Question 2: I do see an “upload file” choice in Codex. When I try to upload the exported WordPress.com file I am asked for a destination. I have no idea what the destination is. I’m guessing that I’m in the wrong place. But I don’t know that because I can’t get logged in to begin with.

    PLEASE HELP — I’m losing my mind!!!!

    Thank you

    Hi Billy.

    Well, as you can tell… I’m not an expert. But, first off, you need to start a new post for each new question. As opposed to adding to this one. This topic was marked resolved a while back and for a completely different question.

    To start a new blog you should be going to your host for support (especially if you already have a blog with them). They should be able to send you a new password. This is a forum for support in using the actual WordPress software. For example, I’m with BlueHost — you have to upload your blog software through your Cpanel with your hosting company.

    You might want to have a read through this https://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html to learn more about the “right” way to use forums. Good luck!
