  I have a wordpress blog, but it is not linked to my profile.

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

  Are you using the same email address for your gravatar account and your wordpress.com account?

  No, this is the problem I think. I must accidentally have put in the wrong one. It won’t let me change it though. :/

  You can add an extra email address to your gravatar account so that it applies to multple wordpress.com accounts. Log into your gravatar account and head here to add an additional email address to your account: http://en.gravatar.com/emails/new/

  I actually have another problem, which is more about google documents than the blog. Basically my google docs just seem to keep putting themselves in the bin! I’m wondering if it happens when I copy and paste from word, instead of uploading the file from word to google docs. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? (These problems are often so easy to solve once you know what you’re doing!)

  Thanks again, lettergrade, for the huge help. :)

  Hi stargleam, I don’t have any particular docs-related expertise (and this forum is specifically about blog-related issues, so you may not find much here), but I can say two things:

  a) I was able to find this (old) thread on a google forum about a similar problem, which might suggest a few things to try.

  b) When you change topics here, please start a new thread so that it’s titled and categorized in a way that people can find easily. You’ll have better luck getting an answer that way, too, because a google docs guru might see it in the list.

  Thanks. That was a useful thread. I wasn’t at all impressed with the answers google gave, and i was shocked by how common the problem was. A bit too serious to ignore, I think. i’m going elsewhere.

  Thanks for all the good advice. :) Don’t ever use Google docs!

  Yeah, I was also surprised that was the most helpful I could easily find. i.e. not very helpful at all. Good luck!
