When I go to change the email address of my WordPress.org account it says that a confirmation email is sent to my email. But I never receive it. I have tried a few times and checked my spam. Any suggestions as to why I am not getting the email? The email address is correct.

The email for the account for the forums (your wordpress.org account) or the email for your account on your own website?

If the latter, see https://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password

Using PHPMYADMIN, change your email rather than the password.

Hello, thanks for the reply and sorry for my late one.

It’s for my own WordPress website. I managed to change my user profile email address but I want to change the admin email address. I know where to go to do so but I never receive a confirmation email. I have checked my spam as well. Any ideas??

Click “cancel” if that’s still available in the dashboard, then just change the email via phpmyadmin.

Thanks Steve. But how do I get to phpmyadmin. Is that within WordPress somehere else?

It’s in your hosting control panel.
