  Hi! I’m trying to post a comment (using wordpress ID) here: http://alisaburke.blogspot.com/2016/03/art-print-giveaway.html#comment-form
  I have the same username as my blog, so why isn’t this working?

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

  The blogspot.com software is not recognizing your WordPress.COM identity. This is a very common issue.

  The bottom line is that the blogspot software expects your blog to be the same as your username ie. it expects your username to be linked to a wordpress.COM blog URL that exactly matches your username.

  When that isn’t the case the software will not allow you to link to any other URL in a comment. So the blogspot.com bloggers have to change their settings for comments for you to be able to comment as
  blingelegance and link that username to http://blingelegance.wordpress.com/
