  Have you made big changes lately?

  All I wanted to do was to add an RSS feed to my Google Reader for this blog, http://satyamshot.wordpress.com/
  I find no RSS link on this blog. In the upper right corner I find the link “blog info”. Hovering over this exposes the link “Subscribe to blog”. Clicking this link take me to something called “Global Dashboard” which also has no way to subscribe to the Satyamshot blog. So I give up. It’s just not worth looking further.

  You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

  I did specify a blog link: http://satyamshot.wordpress.com/
  If you mean the poorly defined pull down menu it only had one like that didn’t apply to what I’m talking about.

  We always need a link to the blog for two reasons:

  1. To make sure you are in the right forum. We get a lot of people asking questions here that are not, and that automated response is meant to help get people to the right forums if they are not hosted here.

  2. Most times, we need to take a look at the blog in order to help.

  You can add a link to your RSS feed as explained in this FAQ which I found by typing “RSS” into the search box on the FAQ page: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/23/put-your-feed-in-your-sidebar/

  Your Posts RSS feed is: http://satyamshot.wordpress.com/feed/ .
