Why are my post showing up in reader searches, but not in followers feeds?
-
Posts are appearing in reader but not to followers. If I search one of the tags I used I can find them, but nothing has appeared in followers feeds (I follow myself to check) for the last week.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Posts still blocked from followers. No help. Just the sound of crickets.
I’ve also read forum threads on similar problems, but mine seems a little different in that the posts will appear in reader under the tags I’ve chosen, but just not to my followers. Rather thwarts the purpose of having followers if they can’t see one’s posts.
Can I get this fixed? Pretty please? Or even a response?
chirp… chirp… chirp…

Have you checked your Spam folder in the email to see if they’ve gone there perchance? Particularly when you subscribe to your own stuff, they go there. And is your email set to send you notifications in realtime, daily, or weekly?
Also, is there any difference between the posts with text and the ones without, in terms of showing up in an email?

Hi Raincoaster, and thanks for responding.
I’m not talking about in email. I’m talking about in the reader. My posts haven’t appeared in there since over a week ago, and NOW when I look, I don’t see any of my former posts at all going back over a month. So, new ones have been eliminated in the last day.
I’ve double checked with a friend who follows me, and she doesn’t see anything of mine either.
Again, my posts DO appear under tag searches. There’s no problem there. And people find them fine from Google searches.
But anyone who follows me will assume I haven’t posted anything in over a week or more.
For all extents and purposes, I am blocked.

That’s getting a bit technical. Where and how do I find out? I can’t find anything in the dashboard about it. And it used to work.

Nope, the feed doesn’t validate. That’s the problem.
Go through that. Ignore the part about YouTube; there’s nothing you can do about YT and it isn’t the key part of the issue anyway. Where it says “no title” find that part of your blog and put the title in. And so on. Just follow up the parts highlighted in yellow and fix them.

Thanks for your expert help Raincoaster.
I fixed it. It was that one line in one post. It’s (expletive of your choice) mysterious. I removed the blockquotes. Nope. Took the text out and re-input it through the text input button, in case there was mysterious formatting which couldn’t be seen in the html. Nope.
Finally I just retyped the sentence manually. Fixed.
So, a sentence was the problem?! Just characters which I replaced with the identical characters?
At least now I know how to find mysterious glitches when they show up.
Thanks again for your help. My post are now in the feeds again!
