  Hi

  I can not add new posts to my WordPress.com blog. The body copy and photos appear in the editor yet when I click “Publish” they disappear? Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Should add that the post title appears to publish, but body copy and photos disappear.

  The text appears to publish fine now, but the images are the main problem. I deleted others in case it was a ‘space’ problem but the images still won’t up load in the post.

  I’m having the same problem – trying as many different things as I can think of but still no images in the post

  You are using the Suburbia theme. The featured image works best with images at least 350 by 248 (width, height).

  These are the troubleshooting steps we take whenever any issues like this arise.
  1. How are you connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com? The way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers. Can you access any of these directly?
