In reply to: User ID and password to WP Admin log-inhello @amieiro
My apologies for this late response. I had other Security issues to sort with my new site etc.
I don’t think I have access to MySQL.. (if that is something that I need to do in Control Panel?).
The only thing I want to change is the email address which acts as my Log- in User name. The current User name displays an email which I was using in relation to my previous domain name. Although I am able to log in to WP Admin with the current Log in User ID (as they are simply nicknames even if they happen to be an email address) but being a damned perfectionist, I just want everything to reflect my new domain name and the log in ID that relates to it. I could even create a nickname saying: “Fussy-Perfectionist” ha ha… but I cannot change the user Name according to WP Profile Edit. I tried to change that under the current Profile credentials. but it says User name cannot be changed and it has been greyed out.
(There is a flaw with WP whereby we cannot make overall changes under our Profile. I have seen this issue being raised by others too).
If creating a new User is the only way to get around this, then so be it. I will do it and see if it raises any log-in issues for me.
P.S. Am I allowed to send attachments in this messaging system? I don’t see the option for it though.
Thank you once again for your attention @amieiro .

Thank you for your swift response. Much appreciated.
I am sorry, but I do not understand your second paragraph:
If you have access to the database, you can go to the users’ table (usually
wp_users, but the text before the underscore can change) and edit your user.Is this after I have created a new User profile? I do not see this wp_users anywhere on the existing user profile .
Thank you.
I thought I was told I could only add a second email when I become a paid user. I have now paid for the plug in and will see how I can add the second email.
Correct me if I am wrong: I have a website email response plug in and I also mention my two email addresses where people can send emails directly to me by using one of the two stand-alone email addresses. Is the Spam protection against such manual emails or is it just to protect emails send via the website?
Thank you very much!
