    I noticed this evening, when i was talking to another blogger. They said, something about me not having a blog.

    When infact I do, but I logged out and went on as a normal non member and when I tried to click on my name. Nothing happened, where as when I clicked on the other member it linked to there blog.

    How can I fix this???

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    There are two types of wordpress blogs. Those hosted here at wordpress.COM, and those which are self-hosted using the software downloaded from wordpress.ORG.

    If you are logged in, and you go to comment on a blog which is hosted here at wordpress.COM, then your username will automatically link to your blog.

    On self-hosted blogs, you will have to fill in your username, blog URL and email address manually because self-hosted blogs are not linked to the accounts here at wordpress.COM.

    You can go to my test blog and leave a comment while logged in to see if it is working or not: http://allhatnocattle.wordpress.com/ .

    Are you referring to when you leave a comment at another wordpress.com blog?
    if so

    go to your dashboard.

    you will see a “Howdy,{yourname}!” at the top right of your dashboard.

    click on your yourname and it will take you to your profile page.

    scroll down to “WEB SITE” and type in the full URL of your Blog.

    ‘ example http://blogname.wordpess.com/ `

    click update profile.

    This should make your name link back to your blog on further comments on wordpress.com blogs.
