  I have seen this sort of question elsewhere but I did not feel satisfied with the answer. The name of my blog address and the name of my website address is different which is confusing. My blog address is odetojapan.wordpress.com but when I go into accounts info in general settings it says that http://korubettoshaiku.wordpress.com is the website address that people see when I comment in other blogs and in my gravatar profile because, I assume, korubettoshaiku is my username. When I type in http://korubettoshaiku.wordpress.com in the browser bar, it says the site does not exist as the user has deleted the blog. How could this be so when it still puts it in as the web address in general settings?

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

  I should probably be clear about the last paragraph up there. How could this address – http://korubettoshaiku.wordpress.com – still be appearing as my gravatar and website address when I comment on other blogs?

  Upper left corner of this board, hover over the Circle W in the grey toolbar, then select “Settings”

  Under ‘Primary Blog’, which one is selected?

  Also check what’s listed beside “Web Address”

  Thanks for getting back to me.

  Primary blog is http://odetojapan.wordpress.com and web address is: http://korubettoshaiku.wordpress.com.

  Also, my OpenID is http://odetojapan.wordpress.com, if that means anything.
