  Hi there,

  Can you explain a bit more about what you mean when you say you can’t comment? Are you receiving an error message or does the comment appear submitted but never appear on the site?

  Also, could you provide some links to posts where you’ve tried to comment recently without success?

  Thank you. The comments never appear on any sites I try to comment on now. If I copy the exact comment and paste it into the comment form again, I get this error message: “Duplicate comment detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that!” but the comments never appear on the site. Here is a site I commented twice on today, with no success. http://nourishingourchildren.wordpress.com/2014/09/25/it-all-started-in-loetschental-switzerland/

  Hi there,

  It looks like your comment was caught as spam on the blog you mention. You’ll need to reach out to that blogger individually and ask them to move it out of the spam folder for it to appear on the site.

  If this continues to happen, could you please pass along any additional blog addresses?

  Thank you Jeremey. This happens on every single blog on which I try to comment. I used to be able to comment on these same blogs. One time I did get an error message that said I was logged in somewhere else, or that someone was logged in as me, and then the trouble started happening. Thanks, and I’ll pass on some more blog addresses.

  Thanks Jeremey. Here is a site I used to comment on, and asked her last night to look in her spam, but none of my comments were there. I just commented again, and it did not show up. Basically it is every blog, ones I have commented on in the past, and also ones I have never commented on before. http://alongthegrapevine.wordpress.com
