  I deleted an old blog a little while ago. I made a new one and set that as “primary”. However, whenever I click my username in a comment that I’ve posted on another user’s blog, it links to a page that says that my old blog is not available. Why is my username not linking to my new blog?

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

  This is not an automatic function. You have to link your username to your new blog. It’s very easy to do. Here’s how to link your username to your blog in your blog Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Website‘ and fill in the the complete URL for your wordpress.com blog starting with http:// and then save changes.

  Now every time you sign into the forum we can all click on your username and your blog will be linked to it. And every time you leave a comment on a blog your username can be likewise clicked and your blog can be instantly located.

  Note that there is a complete record of every post that you make to the forum on your forum profile page. Also note that when you mark a forum threads as “favorites” that you will find them listed on the forum profile page too. And everyone in the forum can access your forum profile by simply clicking on “Member” next to your username.
