    Hello,

    I want to know how can delete or change the original admin user account. It is because I accidentally used my email address as username, not “admin”. It won’t let me delete or edit so I created another admin account with the right information.

    So Is there a way to remove the initial admin account?

    Thanks,

    Hi Erik,

    I invite you to select the user. Then, with bulk editing, select “Delete”. Finally, you will need to apply the change. Please find the attached screenshot.

    Note that when you delete a user, you’ll have to choose who you want to assign the content created by that user to.

    Please note that I took the liberty of deleting the screenshot to keep it between us as it could be dangerous to make it public. If you want to share sensitive data, you can post a private reply to keep it between us. When you create a new topic, you must post a new reply in that new topic to have the option to make it private. The first reply can never be private by default because it is the topic description.

    I hope this helps 🙂

    Best,

    Erik

    I did as you suggested but got a response:

    “Delete Users
    You have specified this user for deletion:

    ID #1: erik.diamond@gmail.com The current user will not be deleted.
    There are no valid users selected for deletion.”

    Seem that it won’t delete the first ID#

    Hi Erik,

    I think this topic from Stack Overflow might catch your attention: WordPress: can not delete user from wp-admin.

    Let me know if this topic helped you solve this.
