Unable to comment on other blogs
-
As of this evening I am no longer seeing comment boxes on any posts I read (blogs I follow or not) and so I am unable to write comments on anything except for my own blog. Am I being blocked for some reason?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You sound like you are describing a browser related issue. Update here http://browsehappy.com and if that does not work post to wordpress.ORG support
herstorycontinued.com is hosted by iPage, not by wordpress.COM.
Your site is not on our WordPress.COM servers. You are posting to the wrong support forum.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
This is wordpress.COM support. 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.
(3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.That support is 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/
Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/
Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpackHowever, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.

But it’s in my wordpress.com reader that I’m unable to see the comment section anymore. The box does not show up at all when I’m in my reader on wordpress.com trying to comment.
-
The comment section will appear to those who have wordpress.COM hosted sites as they are the sites that comprise the wordpress.COM community.
WordPress.ORG sites like your site use Jetpack and if you have a Jetpack issue note that I already posted the support links above.
-
But I’ve been using the wordpress.com reader for 3 months now and have been publishing comments this way for the same amount of time. I’m confused as to why I suddenly cannot. I’ll try the Jetpack solutions and see it that works.
-
For the sake of clarity I will post again. If the posts you do not see a comment link on are not hosted by wordpress.COM but are actually hosted elsewhere the comment link will not appear.

Hello, there are a number of people reporting this issue, so it’s not just you and Staff have been alerted.

Hi there,
This should be fixed now, though you might need to clear your browser cache before you’ll see the comment option in the Reader again.
Please let me know if you need any more help with this.
