  PLEASE HELP ME – leaving on our trip on monday, 4/17. When some people hit the follow button on my blog, they are asked for user name and password. In the past, with former blogs, they only had to key in an email address. Many are reluctant to sign in. DID I SET SOMETHING UP WRONG? SURE APPRECIATE YOU HELPING ME.

  Here’s the problem – I DO have the follow widget, HOWEVER, some people after they enter their email address, are REQUIRED to enter a username and password! SO, as a result, they are NOT able to follow my blog. CAN you help me? Very frustrating for me and my attempted followers. Thanks. Here’s my blog – you try it!!
