  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, for some reason my blog posts aren’t appearing when searching in the WordPress app. Can someone please help? E.g. if I type “Dermatomyositis” which is one of my common tags, it doesn’t appear at all when I search on the “reader” section of the app

    WP.com: Unknown
    Jetpack: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there!

    We are unable to help because we don’t host your site directly on our WordPress.com managed hosting. Instead, your site is hosted with a different provider on a separate host, and we’re unable to access your site’s backend to take a closer look. But I can get you pointed in the right direction.

    It looks like your site beingchronicallyill.co.uk is using the Jetpack plugin. In order for your site’s posts to appear in the Posts’ search results for matching search terms and also be displayed on Tag pages in the Reader, you need to have one of their paid plans. Otherwise, only your site name can be searched in the Reader.

    If you have questions, you can reach out to Jetpack Support for more information.

    I hope that clarifies things!

    Hi, thank you. Do you mean a payed plan with Jetpack? Also, my site name doesn’t even appear in the search on WordPress reader – is this also normal? Thanks

    Yes, that’s correct.

    Also, my site name doesn’t even appear in the search on WordPress reader – is this also normal?

    You need to search for your website URL and your site will show under the Sites heading in the Reader:

    I hope that clarifies things!
