Account

How do I log in? I DO already have a wordpress.com account.

Click the blue login/logout button on the upper right side of each page and that will kick off the process. Make sure you choose “Log in with wordpress.com” and go through the prompts.

How do I log in? I DO NOT have a free wordpress.com account.

First, you need to go to the wordpress.com account registration (opens in new tab). Be sure to skip any prompts to pay for services. Once complete, wordpress.com will send you an email to validate your account. Once your account validation is complete, you can go to the camdenhistory.com login page and log in using wordpress.com.

Please note that wordpress.com provides many services and there are prompts to pay for additional services. These services are not needed and you only need a free account.

Why am I redirected to wordpress.com and do I need an account there?

When you register on camdenhistory.com, you will also need to link your account to wordpress.com. If you do not have a wordpress.com account, one will need to be created. WordPress.com manages your account and customizes your notifications and also helps to reduce the number of spam accounts on the site, among other things.

Can I be notified of new content or comments?

Yes, you can manage this a few ways:

  • To be notified of any new content, simply register! This gives additional benefits of commenting and also managing your notifications in different ways.
  • To be notified without registering, you can use the “Subscribe” form on each page.
  • If you already have a wordpress.com account, you can use the following link: https://wordpress.com/following/manage. Just type “https://camdenhistory.com” into the resulting box.

Can I change my notifications?

After registering, if you want to get your notifications differently (e.g. push, app, email) or you want to customize which notifications you receive, use this link: https://wordpress.com/me/notifications

Can you reset my username/password?

No. You are welcome to use the “forgot password” form on wordpress.com. This is to maintain security. You may also change your password at wordpress.com, which is not affiliated with this site.

Can you delete my user account or comments?

User accounts and comments are deleted from camdenhistory.com in accordance with our privacy policy. Deleting your user account in its entirety must be done at wordpress.com.
