  I have my site set up with your redirect service. So in my example:
  site: thebankwatch.com
  OpenID: bankwatch.wordpress.com (this is shown under options/openid)

  I used it for Highrise today (37 Signals new product) and it failed, saying that the former was not registered as my openid, which is true .. my openid is the latter.

  Or …. should I use the site address?

  Try using the OpenID with bankwatch.wordpress.com. If that doesn’t work, send in a feedback to the staff. I know there is a known issue with the ‘domain redirect’ and OpenID’s working. I haven’t tried in awhile, but mine wasn’t working either.

  Thanks … I used bankwatch.wordpress.com, and it came back saying there is no openid at http://thebankwatch.com

  It has to be the issue I am facing with it redirecting to the other one as the OpenID is defaulted to your original wordpress address and when people hit that they are redirected to your mapped domain which doesn’t have the ID. Staff are aware of this, but a feedback to them might give them another blog to test with.
