 * Hello All,
 * Please see my blog page:
    [http://www.it-freelancer.co.uk/blog/](http://www.it-freelancer.co.uk/blog/)
 * I cannot figure out how to use this blog feature, this is a theme called U-Design,
   if that helps.
 * What I’ve done so far:
    Created a Page and given it the ‘Blog Template’ attribute.
   Created a Category called ‘February 2013’. Create a post called ‘Post 1’.
 * Now, the problem is that if I click ‘Leave a comment’ it just brings me back 
   to the homepage.
 * Originally, I had a ‘featured image’ with a ‘read more’ button next to it. But
   when clicking on either, it also bought me back to the homepage. I can’t see 
   any option to set a URL when I make a blog post.
 * Please ask if you have any questions, i’m trying to be as clear as possible but
   this is my first WordPress Website.
 * Paul

 * Have you tried switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific 
   problems? We do not support commercial themes here, so for any theme-specific
   support, you would need to contact the theme’s vendor: [http://themeforest.net/user/internq7](http://themeforest.net/user/internq7)

 * Hello Esmi,
 * Thank you very much for the reply. I appreciate your time, I’ll send him a mail
   now and see if he gets back to me.
 * Do blogs usually just work?

 * Pretty much, yes. Have you reviewed any of the resources in [Getting_Started_with_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Getting_Started_with_WordPress)?
