Finally, after some considerable fiddling around, I have managed to tweak the template so there is a link to your personal blog when you post.
HOWEVER: this will only display your personal/"main" blog if you have listed it in your Profile as your Homepage. Otherwise, it seems to display UAE Community blog as a default.
So to make your link work, click on Edit Profile and paste your main blog in the Homepage URL field.
(If you have several blogs and you really can't choose, then you could paste your blogger profile link instead).
NB: As far as I can work out, this should also benefit members whose blogs aren't on Blogspot (eg those using LiveJournal, TypePad, etc) as there is no restriction on what URL you can paste in. It doesn't even have to be your blog, so if for some reason you want to put a totally different site there, feel free.

Dear SD,
Thank you for your continuing efforts on our behalf.
This tweak is indeed useful and welcome.
Good one thanks!
Glad you guys like it!
I first found that it only affected new posts I made, but now the older ones seem to link to my perrsonal blog as well. So you might want to force-refresh the page a few times after updating your Profile.
Great stuff indeed .. thanks SD
I did not know that this wasn't possible before.... and so I posted mine unknowingly before you posted yours. And lo!! it worked...now I know the invisible hand!
Thanks SD!!
Thanks for the tweak!
Finally! Thanks SD.
Thanks SD :)
I was also wondering about the little asterisk that appears on newly updated blogs on UAE Community bloggers roll.
I updated my blog today, and there's no asterisk.
Is it a glitch of some sort?
Thanks a lot. Its really helpful :D
