    I edited my options to have my blog show up but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there a format I need to subscribe to like putting http:// in front of the website URL, or having the index.php file listed at the end of the URL address? I've tried every way i can think of but nothing seems to change. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    P.S. One other possibility I thought of is that the default is that everyone can see it but me.

    You mean to have your latest post show next to your avatar?

    Nup. I can't see it.

    What blog software are you using?

    I'm using WP and in the DP options I put: http://www.myblogdomain.com/feed/

    Try adding 'feed' to end of your url.

    Or if the theme you're using has an RSS link in the footer, copy the link and paste it in.

    You need to enter your feed URL, not the URL for the blog itself.

    OK, adding "feed" doesn't work, I'll give the RSS idea a try. Thanks.

    Hey Shawn, thanks for the help. That worked. @Kerosene, I'll give you kudos too, since you were pointing me in that direction as well. But when "The Man" shows up to offer tech support I have to pay homage to him first--I'm sure you understand. :)

    I'm perfectly OK with this thread being closed if any of the Mods would like to accomodate...
