Having problems with your comments????

Happy Sunday my friends!! I have received a lot of emails from clients with the same issue on their blogs so I thought I would do a quick post to share some info with everyone. Are you having problems with your posts jumping straight to the comments instead of allowing readers to read the post first?? This is because Blogger has recently added a new feature for our comments on our blogs.  Unfortunately they didn't get all the bugs worked out first!! If you are using the Pop-Up box or the Full Page for comments this is not an issue for you, but if you are using the comments embedded below the post, then you may be having this issue. Currently, if you leave your settings the way they are, there is no fix for this, but I'm sure the folks at Blogger are working on it. In the mean time.... if you go to Settings > Comments and then choose the Pop-Up Box option instead of Embed below posts, it will fix the problem until Blogger fixes it permanently. Once they fix it, you can switch back to embed below posts if you want to. The new feature allows people (and yourself) to respond directly to a specific comment left on your post. I hope that helps any one who is having this problem!!!

It's the first time I hear about this particular problem. I do hear about people not being able to leave comments.
But thanks for sharing the info!

Hi Karen,
thanks for the heads up.
Have you taken your Christmas decorations down yet? I started 2 days ago and I think I may finish today. I really hate to see it go. I love all the glitter and sparkle. Yours were lovely this year.

Aren't you Bloglands HERO! It is maddening when things don't workl like we want them to. I had switched to the Pop Up Box option a few months back but, thanks for helping all those other frustrated souls.

I seem to be so far behind in my blog visits. The holidays really seemed to put me behind this year but, I do miss my Blogging Buddies. It's amazing what an important part of daily life they all become isn't it? Glad you & Cindy had so much fun. SAD I didn't get to come play too. Hope you'll come by to visit too. HUGS! Charlene

I'm so glad I've always used the pop-up box option. There are enough problems with Blogger, without having to deal with that one. ;)

Thanks for the helpful advice, Karen.
