    When certain people comment on blogs, you can click on their username to be redirected to their blog. These people’s usernames are blue. My friend said that when he clicks on my username, he is not redirected to my blog. How can I make my username link to my blog? I think the problem may be that I changed the domain name of my blog.

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

    Hi there,

    Go to your account settings at https://wordpress.com/me/account/ and make sure your site’s URL is added in the Website field. That controls where your username links to when you comment.

    Meta data like this is cached on a site when you comment, so adding a link in the website field will not link up your username on existing comments, but it will start linking the username on new comments you make.
