  Whenever I post, it comes up as a post, but also then as a comment in my first and second blog posts! I just say delete comment but how do I stop this happening?

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

  Are you perchance linking to those posts within the new posts? That would make them come up as pingbacks, links.

  AHA! Yes I am totally linking to those posts.
  This makes sense, thanks.
  So I’ll just delete them from comments?

  Yes, you can delete them.
  To prevent this from happening, you can use a truncated version of the URL when linking to your own posts – see here:
