  I posted about two hours ago. My response to the daily prompt is still not up on Reader. Why?

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

  Hi there @paft5,
  
  The Reader usually indexes new posts under the default “Relevant” filter a bit later, so they may not show up immediately. I switch the view to “Date”and I found your latest submission from 40 mins ago (see here: https://wordpress.com/reader/search?q=paft5&sort=date).
  
  Could you try switching the Reader view to “Date” instead of “Relevant” and check if your post appears there? The “Date” view lists the most recent posts first and updates faster.

  If you’re still not seeing your post after switching to “Date”on your side, could you please share a screenshot of it?

  Here is a guide on how to take screenshots https://wordpress.com/support/make-a-screenshot/
  
  Let me know how it goes.

  How do I change Reader view to “date” instead of relevant?

  You can search your username and then once the result shows up you can change to Date in the filter option next to the search bar.

  Let me if that helps.

  I still don’t see my writing prompt post. I see the most recent and the one I posted yesterday, but not my writing prompt response from this morning.

  @paft5,
  
  When using the Date View filter in the Reader, I can see one submission from today:
  

  

  Is that the one not appearing on your end, or is it a different submission? If it’s a different one, could you please share the URL of that submission and, if possible, a screenshot of what you see on your side?
  
  I look forward to your reply so I can help you further.

  Here is what I see on my side when I go to reader and search on my user name, sorted by “DATE.”

  Never mind. I deleted and reposted it and it’s now on the reader.
