  I haven’t logged in in a while. When I go to settings, it redirects to:

  http://wordpress.com/#!/read/following/

  and just hangs there.

  Chrome console shows these errors:

  This is preventing me from updating my name on the blog post (it’s defaulting to my username, which isn’t ideal).

  Thanks!

  I believe your issue could be the same as the one in this thread https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/refreshing-stats-clicking-stats-graph-sends-me-to-reader?replies=9

  Hi maggie1000,

  If your problem is addressed in the thread timethief mentioned, could you post over there, so all of our reports are located in the same place? Thanks!

  It seems it’s the same problem, sure.

  In any case, it appears to be fixed and I can see the settings page now.

  Okay, that’s good news then! It may have just been a temporary thing that’s been fixed. If you run into it again, please let us know.
