will deleting one blog affect another blog attached to the same account?

    hi,

    I have 2 wordpress blogs attached to one name (Pulpoid). But http://www.pulpoid.wordpress.com is not in use any more and I wish viewers to link straight to my second, active blog http://www.kissthefish.wordpress.com.

    How do I do that? Because now, every time I post anything in WordPress, I’m registered as “pulpoid” and when clicked it takes the viewer straight to the pulpoid.wordpress.com blog instead of my newer, active blog.

    If I delete pulpoid.wordpress.com, will that affect my second blog that is attached the same pulpoid account?

    How do I preserve my second blog and get it to be linked straight?

    Thank you for any help offered.

    You can change the blog linked to your username. You can only link only one blog to it – it’s your choice which one it will be. Changing the link will not effect the other blog.

    We all have two profiles at wordpress.com. One on our blogs and one here in the forum.

    Here’s how to link your username to your blog in your blog -> Users -> Profile
    In the right hand column locate “Website” and type in the link to your wordpresss.com blog example: http://myblog.wordpress.com

    Linking your username to your wp.com blog in the forum
    (1) Go up to the top right hand corner of this forum page and look for “Welcome,_________ ! View your profile” and click “View your profile”.

    (2) Next click “edit this information”.

    (3) Complete the fields being sure that where it says website that you enter http://insertyourblognamehere.wordpress.com (no period at the end or the link won’t work)

    (4) Once you’re done click “Update Profile”. Voila! Now every time you sign into the forum we can click on your username and your blog will be linked to it.

    (5) Also note that there is a complete record of every post that you make to the forum on your forum profile page. Everyone in the forum can access it by simply clicking on “Member” next to your username. :)
