Replying from timeline and publishing replies to multiple blogs

Understanding Micro.blog
1

I have two micro.blog-hosted blogs. Both blogs have published “Replies” pages. Under Micro.blog >> Account >> Replies, the “Include my replies on” dropdown is set to the default “Timeline only.” However, when I reply to post from the micro.blog timeline, that reply gets published to the “Replies” page on my “primary” blog (the one micro.blog created for me based on my micro.blog username when I first created an account) but not to the “Replies” page on my “secondary” blog.

I see from the dropdown that I can manually select which of the 2 blogs I want replies to be published to, so my questions are:

  1. If it’s set to “Timeline only,” why are replies being published to the “Replies” page on my “primary” blog?
  2. Is it possible to have my replies published to the “Replies” pages on both blogs?
    1. If so, how do I set that up?

To be clear: I don’t want my replies published to either blog as blog posts. I do want replies published to the “Replies” pages on both blogs (if possible).

  1. I think this is just residue and that they will disappear after you remove the replies page from the Pages page.
  2. No, at least not without rolling your own solution. Out of the box, only one site can contain all of your replies.

I don’t want my replies published to either blog as blog posts. I do want replies published to the “Replies” pages on both blogs (if possible).

The blog you choose as target will have replies as blog posts, though. That’s how the feature works. The replies page is just an archive of all the “reply blog posts”. They are a little special, so they won’t show up on the homepage or the default RSS feed, for example.
