Can't comment, despite being *apparently* fully logged-in to WP and Gravitar

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have an account here on WordPress. One day, it suddenly stopped working, and I haven’t been able to post on any blog since.
    My WordPress name is “nameofthepen”.
    When I sign in, it *looks* like I’m signed in. My avatar shows up, my New Posts notice lights up, everything looks fine until I start to post, or to click my “New Post” notice.
    Then, when I start to post, and hit “Post Comment”, it goes to a white screen with a notice “You cannot post this comment”, or something similar.
    When I click the banner up top right to see my new messages or replies, it goes to yet another white screen with an endlessly spinning circle indicating a failure to load.
    Could someone PLEASE have mercy upon me, and help get me out of Commenting Purgatory?
    Thanks.

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

    Hmm… Well, that’s interesting. What browser are you using? Have you tried to access your blog through a different browser or device?

    Hi, Brian –
    Wow, that was fast! :)
    No, not yet. I’m on Firefox, and haven’t yet accepted the latest update.
    I’m resisting going to IE to test it, but I think that’s logically my next step.
    I’ll go try it, and report back.
    Thanks for the tip. :)

    Holy Moley, Brian!!!!

    It worked!!

    Where shall I sent the check?

    Just kidding. But I wish. I’d buy you a nice latte or something for your help. Have a great rest of the day, my friend.
