  Hi meganoith,

  Have you tried the following:
  – Logging out and logging back in?
  – Tried a couple of web browsers to know if the issue is consistent?

  If not, please do indicate more details where we can further identify what is causing the issue in your end, providing details like your website hosting and what browser are you using would help!

  Thanks!

  Hi Carlalberto-

  I’ve tried both of your suggestions. I even reset my password. It simply won’t let me save OR publish. Even if I skip the option of saving and simply try to publish, it won’t let me click on the button to do so.

  Any other suggestions welcome…

  Hi meganoith,

  Hmm, that is weird, let’s try to look closer on that, what is your blog URL?
  Where is it hosted?
  What browser do you use?

  I notice you did not link your username to your site and failed to provide the URL for the site you are working on.
  What is the exact URL starting with http:// of the site you are working on please?

  This is wordpress.COM support. We cannot answer any questions posted here accurately until we have the relevant URL and have confirmed hosting.

  We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM. That support is found at http://wordpress.ORG/support/
  (3) Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.com/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, support docs and support forums, run different theme versions of themes with the same names, and many people get confused about the two. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  The wordpress.ORG support forums are at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
