  I was wanting to make it to where when people clicked on my name it didnt direct them to my kardagroup.wordpress.com (through wordpress.com), but instead took them to my Kardagroup.com (which is through wordpress.org). Is there a way to do this?

  Thanks,
  Branden

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

  G’day to you. I’m sorry but if you go to this page wup will find that you can only link your usrname to the wordpress.COM blog that you designate. Dashboard > Users > Personal Settings

  If you wish you can purchase a domain mapping upgrade. Please see these entries: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/ and http://support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-subdomain/

  There is a trick you can use with the domain mapping upgrade Timethief mentions and it is explained here.

  I’m afraid I don’t understand. Surely under “Profile” bcwyke can put any URL s/he wants? That will change where people go when they click on the name. True, officially it only works for comments made from now on, but there are anecdotal reports that it can change past comments as well.

  Isn’t that what this person is taking about?

  I sure missed on that one, and you are right raincoaster. All they have to do is change it in their personal settings in their dashboard.
