Not allowed to make a post with certain terms?
-
Hello,
Lately when I try to publish a blog, I keep getting a warning that I am “not allowed” to post with “certain terms.” All I could guess was that it had something to do with my categories and tags, so I would remove some, hit “publish,” and repeat until it would actually go through.
The thing is, I have been using the same categories and tags since I started. Why would it give me a problem out of the blue?
Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
Is there any way you could share what the txt of your post is? Are you able to save a draft that staff could look at?
Could you have been using any HTML code in your post? This can happen inadvertently when copying/pasting from various sources. For security reasons, we limit what code can be used on our platform:

Hello,
It didn’t have anything to do with any links I was trying to share. I know this because what I did was I unchecked some categories and removed some tags I was trying to use. The YouTube link was still in it, and THEN it went through.
This is the post that was denied. However, it has happened on at least two posts: this one and the one before it.

Hi Steve, next time this happens, could you see if clearing your cache and cookies helps? You can find here more information on how to clear the cache depending on your browser:
https://wordpress.com/support/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache.
There’s an issue we’re investigating that sometimes throws the error
you're not allowed to edit this post.
We still don’t know what causes this, but clearing the cache and cookies seems to help.
