I noticed that when I make my visits to other bloggers that the link that is left in the comments goes to a defunct blogger page. I at one time at my site hosted at blogger, but now it is at wordpress.
So I do some researching and find out that I can sign in under an OpedID url that would then link my comments back to Parker’s blog.
When I hit a comment I chose to sign in using WordPress. I sign in using this addy. I get this message:
OpenID url is missing.
I discover that I need to go to WordPress and sign in.
So I go to WordPress and sign in. I get this message:
Now that you are signed in, you can continue signing in to https://www.blogger.com with your OpenID.
So I go to sign in there and I get this error:
You need to sign in
You need to sign in to wordpress.com to complete this process.
You should use a bookmark or type in the address to do this. This page does not contain any links, to protect you from phishing.
So I go and sign out of WordPress and then sign back in. I try to sign in and make this OpenID thing work……and nada.
When I try and sign in to a comment I am using http://hodsmom.wordpress.com I so stink at all of this web stuff. Anybody know how to do this? I'd love to have my comments link back here to me! 











Hi! Thank you for leaving a comment on my site and thanks so much for the link back to here. I wouldn’t have been able to learn about your handsome little man, Parker.
I have added your button to my blog and will work my little bottom off to get people to your blog to make donations.
If there is anything you need from me, just let me know.
Have a great evening!
HI PARKER!!! My daughter has a Jumparoo too! But you definitely have her beat when it comes to who can catch more wind. Keep jumping.

Okay, I was testing using the first website on your list, a life less ordinary. I hope I’m reading the question/issue right, forgive me if I’m not.
If you select sign in using “any openID” then select the “nickname” option, you can put your name and web address in. You are using webpress.org, and I think the wordpress sign in option refers only to wordpress.COM. I know some blogspots, I can only sign in using a google account, not sure what to do about that.
But now I’m seeing my suggestion doesn’t work on the next one on your list, all 4 my gals. Hmmm I think it has something to do with this article, but it is making my head hurt, it’s going on 2am here

Something about getting an openid account, I dunno. Okay I quit. That’s why we use wordpress in the first place
Can you put a link to this site in your blogger profile? Not ideal, but it seems less head-achy.
Wish I could help… but I’m clueless…
As far as I know, you can do it one of two ways: 1)Do what a previous commenter said and place a link on you Blogger Profile page or 2)If the person who is blogging allows you to use a Nickname to leave comments, like I do, then there is a place to put your URL address there.
Another way I just thought of takes a few minutes to set up but will always work. Use a little piece of code that is available here in the middle column in the shaded box. Just enter your web address where it says “url” and then where it says “Text to be displayed” just enter your name.
Then take this code and copy it onto a memo note on your computer desktop and copy and paste it at the bottom of your comments.
It sounds complicated but really only takes a few seconds once you get the hang of it.
Frustrating, I know…
Tammy – I sent you an email letting you know I”ll be in your neck of the woods. Did you see it?

I just had to figure this out myself recently, too. Here’s my post.
No clue, just wanted to laugh at you.
