Your Patience Is Appreciated!
Ok…deep breath. I have set every known box, tick & click to allow comments on my site from my and the WordPress dashboard, and for some reason it is still asking everyone to ‘sign in’ to be able to comment. Now I ‘think’ I have the answer.
To make a comment for the first time it will ask you to sign in but thereafter it should be fine. BUT…for the last 12 months or more I have found that even though I am signed in, many sites I go to wants me to sign in before I can comment there. It has just become a habit to scroll quickly up and down with the mouse on each site first and the white rectangle with a grey ‘Follow’ or green ‘Following’ that comes up at the bottom right hand side.
If you click on the three dots in the rectangle it will say ‘Log in’ on the menu…meaning you are not logged in for that site and it will be a grey ‘Follow’ so you cannot comment until you click the ‘Log In’ on the menu (to which another page comes up with your Gravatar and asks you to ‘continue’ with the sign in).
Some sites you can just refresh the page and it will bring the green ‘Following’ rectangle up (which will not give you the ‘Log in’ option because you already are logged in), which should be fine to like, comment etc. But sometimes it just refuses to do so. I think many different themes and their ways of working may affect this also. I have also had problems where I have commented on a site with no problem, and I am replied to…but I then cannot comment again in reply back to them. And that is even after I have confirmed that I am signed in.
This ladies and gentlemen is an argument in the programming and appears to be getting worse. Anyway I bear your patience in refreshing the page or clicking the ‘Log in’ in the rectangle for your first attempt so that my site will ‘see’ you from now on.
It shouldn’t be this hard, whatever has been done is not in the keeping of community but that unloving distrust that security induces. Beyond this attempt I am stumped, and will truly be at a loss because I have let out all my carrier pigeons to a life of freedom 🤣 I may have to just write my book instead 😂
Again…many thanks for your patience 😀❤️🙏
Grateful for your patience! Sounds like you bore the brunt of this work, sadly. Glad it’s been sorted out (or at least from what I’m seeing… only issue being the app for me, maybe that’s the benefit of my sabbatical!). Much love!
Thank you Tiffany, it has been a little testing but slowly it seems to be responding…I think. May it reflect truly what our hearts are sharing my friend 😀❤️🙏
💯
😀❤️🙏
O hope follow my blog.
I GROW TOGETHER 🫂🙏
Sorry to hear, Mark. A test of will and patience. Still with you 🥰
Yay! Thank you kind lady, glad to hear you are not lost to me in the ether’s somewhere. I’m about to fire up a post and see what happens 😀❤️🙏
I had to sign in to comment on your blog, even when I’m already logged in. I too have been having this issue for at least a year or more with bloggers I am following. I saw your carrier pigeons flying by and waved. 👋🥰🙏
A frustrating process MM. I’ll keep my eyes open and hopefully it isn’t something I have set on here. And carrier pigeons footloose and fancy free, now if I can just do that to my blog 🤣 Thank you 😀❤️🙏
Hi Mark!! So happy to hear you’ve started your book!! It is a huge offering and I send you all good energy to sustain the process 😊 I will see how this goes…but sincerely hoping you receive it.
All well here…and I, too, am working on my book…as well as a thousand other projects!!! 😀 It seems I have so much to say!! Sweet Blessings, friend 💜
Hey Lorrie, glad to hear your voice and a big thank you for your blessings kind lady. At the moment the energy is a little crazy. I’ve just had to rebuild my computer, again, and I went to give my brother a hand fixing a railing at our mom’s place…and hurt something in the crushed disks in my neck. I’m not game to pick my pen up for my book, I think it would squirt me 🤣
But your good energy is most certainly there Lorrie, I don’t know what would have happened without it 😂
Good luck with your book then kind lady, just let your heart flow. Love knows no bounds and it will speak as it will. Love and light for that and all your journey. And thank you for dropping in 😀❤️🙏
It worked! I didn’t have to sign in again. It worked for me just like it used to! I hope everyone has success on this. We all miss your posts, Mark. Good job in fixing this!
That’s great Michele, so far it seems to be working for some and not others. At least you are here my friend. I’m not game to touch any more buttons, it might start singing to everyone when they sign in 🤣 I’m supposed to be writing my book…but I feel a post coming on. Probably just wants me to ‘test’ it all again. Thank you for dropping by kind lady, may it stay free and just be a simple click for us all 😀❤️🙏
I hope my comment takes this time. Let’s hope all goes well for everyone so we can get back to writing and not have to put our technical hats on.
I got both comments Michele, that’s a good sign 😂 And yes, back to writing instead of that frustrating sign, sign, sign. Have a great day Michele, it will go as it must so we can find us among it…or I’ll go to the beach for a coffee instead 🤣❤️🙏
I did not have to sign in this time to comment. Also I am doing this through the reader, which isn’t always the case. I hear you saying that you are gonna focus on writing your book. 🙂
I was hoping that once my site recognized someone who had previously signed in that it would accept them from that moment on. May it be so, and thank you for that piece of information. It allows me to ‘see’ what is happening with different types of accounts. And a yes, Spirit has been nudging me from waaaay back in the beginning to do my book, so I cheated and did this blog first…but the nudging seems to be becoming more persistent 🤣❤️🙏
Well then do it 🙂
Haha…yes mum 🤣❤️🙏
😂😂😂
Mark, I have to log-in to make comments if I navigate to you through my email. Now that I’m following you, I can “see” you fine on my Reader. I have to log-in on ANYONE’S site—so you know! Sometimes it seems I’m NOT following, yet I am. SO, I have to stick with the reader. My issue is that I scroll and scroll because when I read is at a specific time, therefore I might “miss” some I follow. GOOD NEWS—You appeared in my notification box when I first looked at notifications today! That’s a win, my friend! Now that the pigeons are set free, I do hope they visit me! YOU have been a rock star through this. I hope you see little Finn and I waving at you. And don’t forget to look for our letter in the bottle. We love you, brother!! 🙌🏻💛🙏🏻
I most certainly do see you both waving merrily Karla, and always looking for messages in bottles by the beach 🤣 Good to see I’m appearing in your notifications, hopefully after all my poking and prodding here some sanity shall return. It appears you have it much more crazy than I do to keep up with posts, comments etc. I gave the reader away because it was, as you said, too easy to miss threads of conversations etc. and while an important conversation was happening there was nothing worse to find something had been missed or lost. Anyway my friend, you and Finn are here, one very important part of this equation is working well. Big hugs dear lady, to you both and a long time chatting to come. Thanks for letting me know your details…so I could see mine. And know the pigeons can stay free 😂❤️🙏
Hello my friend! Yes, we’re all reunited! Yay! I’ll try and catch you up about upcoming things! It’s so good to see you! Happy day dear friend. Love and hugs!❤️🤗🙌🏻🌈🎶🐾
And returned in kind Karla. May your day be shining in His light too. Have a lovely day…and Finn too 🤣❤️🙏
Thank you dear Mark. You too!! ❤️
Hiii this is a test – ha such is life ❤️❤️🤣🤣🤣much love to you my friend!
Hey Danielle, I can see you…thankfully. It has been a crazy ride, especially with technology at the moment. Much, much love and hugs to you also kind lady. May it all balance soon. A question…are you just signed into your blog account before you came here and just commented or did you have to sign in here at my blog also to be able to comment? Take care my friend, may it all soon sing as it should 😀❤️🙏
I was able to just comment – I did not have to sign in :)) 🤞🏼but I do know what you are speaking of. My friend Dwight’s blog I am unable to comment unless I resign in – it’s odd.
Just have to ride each wave as it comes Danielle, experiencing it all to reach that love inside. Probably just a hint to focus on the book instead of gaily chatting on here every day 🤣 But I’ll have to chat a bit, I’d go crazy otherwise. Thank you my friend, hopefully it will just settle down and fly as it should 😀❤️🙏
You’re not the only one who has trouble commenting, let’s see if this works… dont give up and maybe we can all write a letter to WordPress explaining our difficulties❤️
Hello Barbara, and a yayyy for your appearance here. You are a delight to hear from young lady, I was beginning to think I was going to spend a real lot of time on my book 🤣 Just a side issue, did you have to sign in to comment or were you able to just comment away? 😀❤️🙏
I signed into my WordPress and it was accepted! Normally it doesn’t accept it and I have to sign in as anonymous ❤️ so something positive is happening!
Oh that’s great Barbara, finally some sanity and I can get back to communing with you all instead of the technicalities of WordPress 🤣 Thank you for your patience, bravery and techno savvy to help out, and for that a very big hug kind lady. It is appreciated truly 😀❤️🙏
Yikes! So sorry you are going through this. I have to sign in to comment.
Thanks Cindy, I’m praying you only have to do it this once and it will be nice thereafter. If not I’m just going to have to write a book instead 🤣 Thank you again, it is appreciated kind lady 😀❤️🙏
