Can’t click on avatars in comments

  I used to be able to browse a blog and when I saw someone making an interesting comment in someone else’s blog, I could click on their avatar and go to their blog.

  That doesn’t seem to be working any more. When I click on my avatar it says “The URL is not valid and can’t be loaded.” I don’t understand why I can’t click someone’s avatar and get to their blog, nor can people apparently do that for me.

  These are just internal links within WordPress aren’t they? I understand that some people have and link to domains, but surely getting to someone’s blog here at WordPress should be as easy as clicking their avatar?

  I’m sure I used to be able to do that a couple of weeks ago.

  Check your Profile and make sure the link under “website” is correct.

  Okay, thanks, that seems to have worked.

  Perhaps the people that don’t work just don’t have the links entered and I never noticed before?

  Anyway, I appreciate the help.

  No worries. It generally takes a few weeks of commenting to figure out what you have to do and where.

  Mine’s still not working. If I hover over my avatar, the address that shows up is http:/// how can I fix this?

  Go to your Profile. Go to the part that says Website. Put in the correct URL, starting with http.
