Missing Blog on Reader

  • Unknown's avatar

    I do not see my own blog under the topic(s) I’ve tagged it to.
    Example: All my blogs are under yoga and two of my recent posts since last night do not show in the Reader. Only one which is only a playlist image.
    Why is that? I’m lost. =(

    Hi there!

    It appears on some of your posts, you’re using more than 15 tags and/or categories in your posts. Once that happens, your site will cease to show up on the Topics pages. Here’s more information on this limitation:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts

    Go through and edit your tags on all your posts to bring them below 15, and your posts will start showing up under topics again in several days.

    I hope that clarifies things!

    Hi csonnek! =)
    I tried what you instructed – lessen the tags; not more than 15. I haven’t seen my posts yet on the Reader.
    I received a survey to rate the support; but I haven’t seen the results… yet. Don’t know when the posts would show up. =(
    I tried the Settings – Privacy thingy; but I doubt my blogs are private since any other posts I did (with lesser tags) do show up on the Reader.
    And honestly, I can’t find the Settings – Privacy thingy. I saw that before but can’t find it. I’m just duh.
    Any other suggestions? Is it advisable to delete the posts and repost them again. There are only two of them.
    Let me know. Graci!! =)

    It’s a combined 15 tags and categories. I did a quick glance of your posts, and you still have at least three that exceed that limit:

    http://justsylph.com/2013/04/08/in-stillness/
    http://justsylph.com/2011/07/13/growth-spurts/

    You may have more – those were just the three that stood out to me at a glance. The rule of thumb when assigning categories and/or tags is keep them relevant and know that less is more.

    Once you’ve made your updates – it will take several days before your blog’s posts will begin to appear in the Topics list again.

    I hope that helps!

    So I did what you’ve told me and lessened my tags. I haven’t seen my blogs on the Reader still. I came across a blog that has like 20 or more tags; yet it showed up on my Reader, one of the blogs I follow.

    I rated the support as “just OK”. You have been great; don’t get me wrong. Only thing is, the system did not quite work well for me and my blogs. I did not get the result I wanted. In fact, there was no result. =(

    What I’ll be doing is delete them and repost them again. See if that works. Thank you again for helping!! =)
