  mediatedviscera,
  The site linked to your name is not a wordpress.COM blog (nor even a wordpress.ORG blog), so we cannot help without a link starting with:

  mediatedviscera,
  Thanks for the live link.
  Not everyone who comments on your blog will have a blog of their own. If they don’t, then obviously you won’t find a blog. And some folk are remarkably shy to tell you (or anyone) a link to their blogs! Or they may not know how to link.
  You can require on settings > discussion settings:

  Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
  Users must be registered and logged in to comment

  But I don’t think you can require readers who comment to have a blog “somewhere/anywhere” besides at wp.com, to post their URLs.

  thanks so much…
  i have used other platforms where i could figure out who was writing to me to start a discussion. this is different, i have the email address but no page to see what they are all about.

  thanks anyway…the bite sized pork cutlets look great my girlfriend and i love cooking, we will have to give that a shot!

  best,

  ryan
