  Hi,

  You need to link your blog to your name as it says in the forum stickies:

  But check out this support page for moving blogs. It works to merge them as well.

  Thanks very much Mike. I have done that successfully now but can’t write in my main blog any more as the new post link and the srraightforward dashboard link keep sending me to the author has deleted this blog notice.

  If you have any idea what I’ve done I should be so grateful to know how to sort it out.

  In the dashboard have a look under:

  Users, Your Profile, and see what the primary blog is set as. If it is showing your old blog then change to the title of your current blog and save the changes.

  If that doesn’t cure it you may need someone smarter than me to give you the answer.

  (This assumes that both blogs were on the same account.)

  Thanks again. I just checked and it is showing the right blog as the primary one. Oh well, at least I can still use it fully, just in a slightly more roundabout way as I have found how to access it and post etc via the global dashboard.

  yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!

  I have done nothing at all and it is now working fine! The system must have just been having a good think about everything before updating it properly.
