# 2 users, same person

 * When I originally started using WordPress, my user name was gigiperrin with an
   email address (113 posts). When I switched over to Bluehost and imported/exported
   to WordPress, I had to set up the user name “admin” with a different email address(
   16 posts).
 * 1) Am I able to merge the two user names into one?
 * 2) None of my old posts are viewed from my NetworkedBlogs feed nor are my new
   ones. The old ones get fed to an Error 404 Bluehost page. How do I correct that?
 * My URL is [http://avocationsunlimited.com](http://avocationsunlimited.com)
    Thanks,
   Gail

 * If you delete one of the users (delete link from the users page), you’ll be presented
   with the option to attribute all posts/links from that user to another one on
   the site – that should allow you to merge the 2 users. Just make sure you don’t
   select “Delete all posts and links” before you hit “ok”. In fact, maybe make 
   a backup beforehand just in case.
 * As for the other issue – I’m not really familiar with NetworkedBlogs, but did
   your permalinks settings change after you switched hosts? I see you now have 
   permalinks disabled (the post urls end in ?p=123 etc) – were they different before(
   like avocationsunlimited.com/this-is-my-post)?
