• Hi. I have two administrators listed under Users – one that I think was created when I first set up my website (automatically, by default? I can’t remember), and a second administrator I created yesterday. Both are in fact me. I’d like to delete the first administrator, since the username is an email address, which I don’t consider safe. However, it only allows me to View or Edit the entry, but not Delete it.

    How can I delete it?

    I thought that by creating a second adminstrator (as I did yesterday) with a different email address, I could then delete the first administrator (this was advice given elsewhere on the internet) but it hasn’t worked.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Many thanks, Alex.

    Many thanks for getting back Steven. I’m currently using one login to access Hostinger, which hosts my website. I then click on a link there which automatically takes me through to my website’s WordPress dashboard. Could you tell me what I have to do to follow your advice? I think I don’t quite understand how this particular login business works.

    Many thanks!
