  I want to reblog a post by I WILL TRAVEL ( who I follow). But I DON’T see the reblog button either in my Reader ( i see it on other’s posts) nor do I find the toolbar(!) when I am logged in to his post.
  What do I need to do?
  Cinda

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

  The reblog feature is for free hosted WordPress.com blogs. What is the URL of the blog in question? Is it a free hosted WordPress.com blog or not?

  Hi Timethief-
  http://iwilltravelblog.com/
  His blog says “hosted by Word Press.
  Will hasn’t replied as to whether it is OK to reblog him – could he have a “privacy/piracy shield”?

  Thanks, Cinda

  No. It does not say hosted by WordPress.com. It says powered by WordPress. Click the link please

  That is a WordPress>ORG install. WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and have separate logins. WordPress>ORG installs are not part of the WordPress.com blogging community.

  hmm – I learned something. Thanks for telling me – it would have taken forever to figure it out!
