I cannot delete websites from my gravatar. I delete them but when I go back to my gravatar they are still there.

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

The blog you specified at rabbimitterhoff.com does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. If your question is about a self-hosted WordPress blog then you’ll find help at the WordPress.org forums.

If you don’t understand the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you may find this information helpful.

If you forgot to include a link to your blog, you can reply and include it below. It’ll help people to answer your question.

We cannot help you here with that site. We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and you are posting to the wrong support forum.

WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

If you have a blog on WordPress.com, you can log into your WordPress.com Dashboard and remove the link by navigating to Users > Personal Settings.

The Gravatar page method is currently broken, but it has been reported to our developers and we hope it will be resolved soon.

You’re welcome. This has come up a few times this week, so it was easy to catch.

The removal of website links is still an issue. When I try to remove and save the profile, links are still there. I tried deleting all my links and re-posting and now have doubles of all my sites! Please help!

Are you trying to remove the links from the Gravatar page or from your Personal Settings page within WordPress.com?

Hello Jackie. I’m trying to remove links from my Gravatar Page. Can you help me resolve this issue? Thanks!

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, we are aware that the link removal process on the Gravatar page is broken, but you can log into your WordPress.com Dashboard and remove the link by navigating to Users > Personal Settings.

Hi.
I’m also having trouble with deleting sites from Gravatar (who redirects from their website support to here)
I want to remove a website from my Gravatar profile not my wordpress.
I take it these are two different processes.
This is the page I mean ~
https://en.gravatar.com/jodegray

Could you shed some light over here please?
Thanks

Log into your WordPress.com Dashboard and remove the link by navigating to Users > Personal Settings. Hope that helps!

That is to remove a blog from wordpress not a link to a site on gravatar.
Thanks for trying though.

jackiedana, the “happiness engineer” told me to do that and it worked for me. My links are gone.

@jodegray, your Gravatar account is connected to your WordPress.com account.

Go to http://jodegrayart.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=grofiles-editor and you can remove the links there, and they will also be removed from Gravatar.
