Intense Debate on another blog does not link to my blog when I make a comment.
-
I commented on a Blogger blog which recognized me as being signed-in and identified my blog. The comment was published with my avatar and the WordPress icon, yet it links back to Intense Debate and not my blog. How do I get the comment to link back to my blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is the blog where I made the comment.
The blogger responded to my comment noting that I did not leave a link. I thought that was automatic, as it is on other blogs.

Ah – it doesn’t appear like you have any blogs or websites logged under your IntenseDebate profile here:
http://intensedebate.com/profiles/daylily430
Can you add those in?
Your IntenseDebate account and WordPress.com account are actually two different things. When you visit a blog page that has IntenseDebate active, we automatically create an IntenseDebate account for you. However, you may need to manually add some information into your IntenseDebate account.
The IntenseDebate link will also always go to your IntenseDebate profile. However, you can add your blogs to your profile above and also drop a link to your blog in your description shown here:
Let me know if you have any additional questions!

How do I do this? Does this mean that Intense Debate will them be installed on my WordPress blog?

Hey Ellen!
No – IntenseDebate will not be then installed on your WordPress.com blog. Think of this as another account of sorts. It’s separate from your WordPress.com profile. You’ll just need to visit here when logged into your WordPress.com account:

You should be able to click “My Account” on the top of the screen and edit your information including adding in sites. Can you try to give that a go?

Ok, last night I went to My Account and added my blog. Now there is a picture of my blog page in the left-hand column of that page. You then have to click on that picture to go to my blog. This seems to involve an extra step. I have noticed that if I click on a comment avatar, I am taken directly to their blog and not first to the Intense Debate site. What is the difference?

Just tried it twice and it worked! I think I’m good-to-go😀. Thanks for solving this mystery for me!
