  • how odd. how it’s there.

    I tried to get to my dashboard as suggested above by @1two3
    I keep getting message that I don’t have permissions.

    I am at least seeing stuff inside groups where I can create a class however adding assignments is giving me grief so figured I’d try looking for the dashboard again.

    Something I missed at first was that you have to sign into each group under admin and then enable docs in that group before it starts showing up.

    roflmao oh your right about me “perhaps” confusing accounts and logins.

    I need to go forth and play a little with the information you have provided me today. I really appreciate the clarity that you have provided.

    Ok but if I’m posting and commenting on blogs I would think it would make sense (to me anyway) that I want to be consistently the same person. i.e. if I posted on your blog and then went and posted on another unrelated blog. and then a third blog

    all as myself which I want to do to be a part of community but as myself not as an admin. Public facing.

    I get that as an admin there really isn’t a need to be all that consistent. But for potential clients/ friends/ whoever would be open to chatting I would like to be one person.

    Thoughts on doing that? Would I pick one profile and always post from that? And if so would that be better to be a .com profile or a .org.

    I’ve already left .com and redirected over to my .org site. But if there is benefit to using a .com profile I’ll use it.

    I’m also cool with having different profiles and passwords for different sites that I need to access however that would be more on the admin side.

    Hmmmm. Ok I think I’m grasping it. But what about a site that I’ve created with this profile. Then I’ve signed on and created other users for it (thinking I’m using my wordpress account) but if I follow I’m creating another profile with the same name under that site.

    I feel a multiple personality disorder forming. I really don’t need that many accounts. I am actually trying to maintain a branding message so if I do something in one space it stays the same.

    So if I post on a blog somewhere I want it to be me, not one of the profiles I’ve set up just to admin a page from.

    I can’t delete old accounts. But if I could rule out which ones I don’t want to use any more that would at least help me not try to sign on under multiple accounts on multiple sites

    I appreciate your time and patience.

    this seems to be getting more layered the more I dig into it. I have multiple accounts or so I think. I’m getting confused about a user for a specific site. my site I’m using I have like 3 different users.. all me but different passwords and sign login names.

    I think at the core this is my main .org account. And that is great. But I’d like to figure out if I have already created an account under a different name or if I should just move everything over and let it lapse as you say. BTW how long does it take for them to lapse.

    This account is the only one i have that actually has a picture/gravatar. If anyone is aware of an article that would help explain this to me I do realize I’m the dense one.

    Ok That took me 10 minutes to get signed back in to an account. This account.
    Kept telling me my password wasn’t right. No wonder I’m confused.
    Password finally worked.

    Now that I understand that I have profiles on both .com and .org that helps.

    Now I’m grasping then that each site that I run has member profiles. Distinct from my Admin sign in.

    I’d like to try and figure out which one of these I need to change to make it my primary. I don’t want to be posting as AdminChuck all over the place.

    Will wordpress .com or .org (mainly .org) allow me to change my user name? From CoachChuck to something else? Do I need to create another new profile and then delete some of these others?

    First I am clear that I am the confused one here.

    I have a somewhat related question though. I’m confused because over the years I’ve been on wordpress.com and ww.wp.xz.cn. I have multiple sign-on names. And even just as I was coming to post this I thought my login was AdminChuck. But then I reverted and used email to sign in it showed it as CoachChuck which is what I was actually looking for the information to go along with that screenname.

    So here is my confusion.
    Are members/profiles on a site I run different from the profile I have here at wp.org?
    Which would in turn be different from profiles I have a wp.com?
