How do I mark my blog as containing mature content?
-
My blog contains adult / mature content. I can’t find where to mark it as mature. The help points me at toolbars and menu options I can’t see.

Hi there,
I reported the blog for you in the dropdown menu from the Admin bar left hand side on the front of your blog. https://en.support.wordpress.com/report-blogs/There is no warning notice page provided here. You crate a static front page and post one of your own making on it.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/Also you can go to the front of your blog and click the “report blog” link in the dropdown to report it to Staff as “mature”. For details re: mature content blogs.
A blog that is marked as Mature is excluded from public areas of the WordPress.com service. This means:It is not eligible to be featured in Freshly Pressed on the front page of WordPress.com
It will not appear in global tag listings
It will not appear in Top Blogs listings, recent posts, or related posts listings on other blogs
The blog’s users cannot use that URL as a link in their WordPress.com Forums profile
from http://en.support.wordpress.com/mature-content/See also http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
From the TOS http://en.wordpress.com/tos/
Please don’t:
•Post explicit sexual materials that can be considered pornographic, such as explicit images or video of sexual acts or close-up images of genitalia;
•Post links or banner ads to adult-oriented affiliate networks, such as pornography site signups;
•Post links, text, or images promoting or advertising escort services;
•Post images of extreme violence or gore without associated context or commentary;
•Post images of child pornography;
•Post content that promotes pedophilia, such as blogs with galleries of images of children where the images, content surrounding the images, or the intent of the blog is sexually suggestive. -
timethief,
Thank you. This is exactly what I was after.
You describe:
Admin bar. – Can’t find it.
Click ‘report blog’ – Can’t find it. Searched for two hours.
Consequeces of making a blog ‘mature’ – Found this! But thank you for making sure I’d seen it.I know I’m being thick, just like a nubie, but thank you for the information about the static front page. That’s what I was after with the status of ‘mature content’. I’ll sort that out now.
I’ve just created another blog (ptathukb.wordpress.com) I’ll try to duplicate the static page thing and mature content status, before I post anything.
Thank you again for your help.

Admin bar: See the top of the page where there’s a dark grey bar all the way across the page. From left it reads “W” wordpress logo, My Sites, Reader, then there’s a huge wasted space we have no idea what that is for, then your avatar on the right hand side.

There is an Admin bar on the top of every blog that’s hosted by WordPress.COM. There is a drop-down menu when you hover over the left hand side of that Admin bar. Look at the image here https://i2.wp.com/en.support.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/report-this-content.png

raincoaster / timethief,
Thank you for taking the time to help. I’ve seen the Admin Bar, but it looks different to what you both describe. https://ptathuk.wordpress.com/2015/02/25/admin/
I don’t seem to be able to ‘Report this content’ on my own blog.

I have already reported the blog to Terms of Service Staff for you and that means you can stop worrying about this. :)
