WordPress Problem

I’m a writer. I always have been. So, I started a WordPress blog years ago. This WordPress blog. It’s a free one. I’m not paying for it, but I post my poetry, thoughts and spiritual writings on it. It’s grown over the years.

But, I wanted to create a website for different kinds of writings. I have many interests. I like WordPress so that’s what I decided to use for my new website. This was in 2020.

I created the website. But, WordPress discovered that my new website was by me, so they connected the old blog with the new website.

I did not want it. I contacted WordPress and they said they can’t fix it.

So I have to dealt with it. I think it has impacted my growth on my website.

Here’s the problem. It seems that all my emails have my name from my old blog on them. It’s fine for my old blog. But for the new website, it’s confusing I think. It irritates me to death.

Imagine if Mark Zuckerberg had a blog, then created Facebook. And some how the old blog got wrapped up in Facebook. So image that every email or notification said “Mark Zuckerberg; Facebook” instead of just “Facebook”.

Anyway, it’s quite irritating for me. And I think it has hindered my growth…
