how can I fix my profile link?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I need help! About a year ago, I was writing for this other wordpress blog. It all went down rather badly and I asked to have all my content removed from it, as I no longer wanted any connection to this blog and this person.
    I had to ask repeatedly to have the content completely removed, she was rather stubborn and would only remove what I pointed out needed to be taken down, instead of just taking it all down in one fell swoop.
    I was -of course- also taken off the blog as a contributor and could not change any of the settings. This was, as I said over a year ago,.. Since then, when I post on a blog under my wordpress log in, it will always link back to HER BLOG. I have asked her repeatedly over the course of the year to fix this, I have even offered to have a friend of mine help her find how to fix this issue, but to no avail.
    How can I fix this problem without needing her to do it? I have tried anything and everything over the course of this year, but to no avail.
    I am working hard on making my blog successful and really would like to have the clicks from my comments coming to my blog instead of hers.
    Thank you!

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

    I really need help with this!
    Can someone tell me how to contact actual customer support here, at least?
    I was considering to go premium with wordpress, but if this is any indication, then I guess I better pass on that and move my blog.

    This really makes me sad! :(

    It is not possible to edit or delete any comments you have left on other WordPress.com blogs. Blog owners ie. the original Admin who registered the blog are in full control of the comments on their blogs, so you can try contacting the blog owner and ask them to edit or delete a comment for you. As the blogger does not choose to honor your request then you have reached a dead end.

    Also note that your username can only be linked to a single primary blog. Changing that is not retroactive. All comments you made previous to such a change remain linked to the blog they were linked to when you submitted them and they were approved.

    Here’s how to link your username to your blog in your blog Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Primary Blog‘ select the URL for your primary wordpress.com blog and then save changes. Then every time you sign into the forum we can all click on your username and your blog will be linked to it. And every time you leave a comment on a blog your username can be likewise clicked and your blog can be instantly located.

    I am not asking to have comments removed! I have tried to change the primary blog to mine but it is not working! I have done that right away after I noticed that it still links to the other one. You can try it yourself up in the question it does not link to my blog! I noticed that it did not link to my blog after she had already taken me off and now I have no way of getting it fixed. Thanks for trying to help, but all this has been done already by me. I have been dealing with this FOR OVER A YEAR! all the “obvious” profile attempts have been done…
    Nothing is working….

    I am really frustrated it always defaults back to that other blog… I’m trying it one more time now…. :(

    This is your username ramblingdesigns
    This is the blog it is linked to http://ramblingdesign.wordpress.com/

    How many blogs have you registered under that exact same username account?

    Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

    If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
    follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

    It would be helpful to know what the URL of the blog is that you want to link your username to.

    I just saw! It finally worked! I have changed the personal settings at least a dozen times over this year! It always defaulted back to the other blog! It still did this morning! I just now went to give it one more shot and it actually worked, now it’s to find out if it stays that way until I log in again, or if it defaults back….. like it has done in the past…
    Thanks for the help! Although like I said I had done this exact step before right away after I left the other blog…. I hope it takes this time
