I can't link my hosted wordpress site

    Ever go to a webpage like a blog and it has the comment section at the bottom? Whenever I go to add a comment and use my email address associated with WordPress it gets confused. I have to log on to that WordPress account and then I can’t link my website for some reason. Here’s the site I was at: https://blog.turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/6-ways-to-pay-as-little-self-employment-tax-as-legally-necessary-3259/

    So once I log on I can no longer add my website, which is http://www.tipthedriver.com which is hosted at 1and1. It IS a wordpress site, though, so I’m confused. This just started happening a few months ago. I just did a test using a different browser and if I make up a random email address it correctly points to my blog. Is there a way to get my WordPress email to associate to my blog or to unassociate itself with wordpress so I can use it like I just did in my test?

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

    Comment moderation put in place by the site owners can prevent you from adding any links to your comment.

    When you go to leave a comment at that linked site, you should see a small drop down appear that says “you are commenting as…username” and your gravatar should appear there too. Are you seeing that?
