Making Comments

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello! It has been a nightmare trying to login to WordPress with a new password so I can view another’s blog and posts. Finally after over 1 1/2 hours, it has been done.

    Now when I go to this person’s blog, I don’t see an obvious way to make a comment on current or former posts and I am registered with the blog.

    I dont have plans of having my own blog, so please don’t suggest that at this time – instead I need this problem resolved so I can participate properly.

    Thankyou.

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

  • Hi,

    What is the URL of the site you are trying to comment on? We’ll be happy to take a look and see if we can help.

    I left a message asking how I could make comments on this site (adruidway or thedruidway) I received an email this morning asking me to provide the URL (which I am doing now) but I noticed the email sent to me was ‘no reply’ – so I have to start all over again with this information. I am registered with the blog, but perhaps they are not taking comments although I see people have made them. ?? Tks for your assistance.

    The email you received was a notification that you got a reply to your public forums thread here:

    https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/making-comments/?view=all

    This email is not something you can reply to in order to get support – but we’ll be able to help you here in the forums. I merged your other thread into this one so we can keep everything together. When you need to reply, visit the above URL. Thanks!

    Regarding the website, we need the actual site URL of the site you’re trying to leave a comment on. Once we have that information we’ll be able to advise what you can do.

    The comment above referring to “The blog I need help with is…” well, the blog name there is not the blog – that keeps coming up should I want to have a blog, which I don’t.

    The URL or name of the blog I am trying to comment on is-
    adruidway OR thedruidway Tks…

  • Thank you. A url typically starts with http:// or https:// and often ends in .com or .org. There won’t be spaces.

    Can you visit the site, then click in the address bar to get the url, and paste that here?

    Thank you! That helps. :)

    That site owner has opted to automatically close comments on posts that are more than 30 days old and their most recent post was posted on 2021/10/26, which was nearly a year ago.

    That’s why you don’t see an option to comment. Once they make a new post, you can leave a comment then.

    I hope that clarifies things!

    Thankyou; that does clarify very well.
