  My contact form enters my email address in the email field and the name of my blog in the name field. How do I get a contact form that is blank?

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

  It fills in because you are logged in to WordPress.com. Try logging out and looking at your contact form. You’ll see no information filled in.

  If I were to look at your contact form while logged in to WordPress.com, then I’d see my own name and email address pre-filled. Just because you see your personal information on the contact form doesn’t mean that anyone else can (except the site owner after the contact form is submitted).
