I'm finding Google+ to be a real pain in the butt! When I started my blog on blogger I signed up with my general email address but when I got going and wanted to get mor eorganised I created a new email address for my blog so essentially I have to google+ profiles.
Is there anyway on blogger I can change the google+ profile I use to login to my newwer one that I have specifically for my blog?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Ah, I'm not sure! Could you contact google and see if the accounts can be merged?
I wish I could help!

Oh my gosh I think Google+ is the biggest pain in the ass ever. I created a youtube channel (which i hadnt used but wanted to reserve the name just in case) and it made me create a google plus page for it. so it created this page which i was able to have a custom url for as ayankinblightypage...but then when people we adding me it was the regular profile for my e-mail and not the one connected to the youtube. so i finally gave up and deleted it but it wasn't letting me disconnect the youtube and google plus page despite me clicking disconnect on the warning and trying to find it for a good hour one day. So i finally said screw it and deleted both. of course this means the youtube url for ayankinblighty is gone and i apparently can't get it pack so i settled and figured out how to get the one connected to my e-mail google plus page to be ayankinblightyblog. Not ideal but at least similar enough to not be confusing.
But the real kicker is I can't have a custom url for my google plus page until I have a certain number of followers/likes/whatever it is on google plus...and i don't feel like that many people use it so i don't promote it much so it might take a while...
*breathes*
needless to say Google+ is not my friend but as everything is google connected now (at least blogger and youtube) then i'll maintain it even if it annoys me. /end rant

Mmh I'm not sure, but you can always create a Google+ Page for your blog! I know it's not the same thing, I barely use it myself. A Google+ profile is much more useful! I would try to contact the customer service, I'm sure they can do something!

Hi Kayla
I did much the same re: Google and blogger and email addresses/G+.
How you manage it is you log into blogger as normal, click on Settings ---> Basic ---> Look under Permissions and you should have a section labelled Blog Authors which will show your current email you use to log in.
Click on Add Authors and add the email address you want to log in from. From what I remember this sends an email to that address and you accept (or something like that it was a while ago).
You can then change your new email address blog author to be an admin from just author which means when you log in from your new email you have full admin rights across blogger, and voila. You can now log in as the new email/G+ profile.
Hope that helps!
