    I noticed some members, under their name have the most recent blog they've written.
    How do I edit my settings to do this? I've looked under User CP, but I can't find anything that would resemble that (unless I happen to miss it).

    thanks

    Go to your blog and on the right side of the address bar you should see an orange icon (the rss icon.) Click it and that is your rss feed. If the icon doesn't show in your browser, post your link here or pm it here and I will tell you your rss.

    Got your PM, thanks.

    Thats what I put in before, but for me it shows that it links to this thread...
    does it do that for you too?

    Mine just has the title of the blog - not the last post.

    It will always point to your homepage, but the title is usually the last post you made- look at mine for an example
