where’s my activation code?

If this is for wordpress.com, try asking for help in the forums there:

https://wordpress.com/forums

I think I made a mistake on my email address by putting a “.com” instead of a “.met” I still want my title—elizabethiantea. What do I do?

As Kafkaesqui said, this is WordPress.ORG, not WordPress.COM. We only provide support for the stand alone version of WordPress here.

This “ooooh, get you! Go back to dotcom, kid !”
and “go try wordpress.com” is pretty Useless Advice, because without that activation email you can’t get into the dotcom site to ask anyone.

And if you google “wordpress support forum”, you get this one. Newbies to WP like me don’t know these tremendous and clearly precious niceties you dotorg guys cite.

Some actual help would be nice.

It is pretty Kafka-esque, isn’t it?

Is this more helpful? https://wordpress.COM/forums is the link to wordpress.COM’s support forum.

Honestly, we can’t do a darn thing to help you with your API keys.

Thanks HS, but the thing is, without the activation emails we aren’t allowed IN THERE to ask the questions!!

Me, I’ve decided against WordPress now. Too hard to get into. Pretty pathetic software if 8 hours after sign up it still hasn’t manage to send an automated activation email!!!

I don’t have an account there, but I went and looked at the stickied FAQ and here’s the answer I got:

I’ve never received my activation mail.

Sometimes activation emails can be seen as spam by some hosts. Please double check your spam folder for this email. Also there is now a form on the home page to request your activation email to be resent.

And to think, beachhutman, none of us is being paid to be here to help anyone…I just did that because I could…heck, you could have to if you had used your brain.
