Why do comments that I have accepted show up on my post and then disappear?

  • Unknown's avatar

    At least one comment has disappeared, and since then, the only activity on my page has been from a 2 people who clicked ‘follow’. I’m not getting any likes or comments. This is not normal, so I think that either they are not getting through or readers are unable to perform those actions. Or maybe they can’t get to my page at all.

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

    You’re tag spamming, ie using more than s15 tags and or categories on your posts, so you’re probably banned from the tag pages.

    We can’t help you more specifically unless you give us a link to a post on your blog where the comment was approved and is now gone.

    Thank you for explaining that. I didn’t realise. When I checked the guidelines, I saw that it said to limit it to 15, but it it didn’t occur to me that it meant 15 in total! I feel stupid. I can sort that one out, no problem. You have really helped me out.

    It was because of the guidelines that I increased the number of tags, because I didn’t realise that it meant tags and catagories in total. I’ve cut out some tags in the three offending posts. Will that have sortedit out? Or do I need to do something more?

    Re. the problem with the comment – that was because I edited a post after the comment was sent, and then inadvertantly trashed it and replaced it with a different draft! It’s by our mistakes that we learn, so I expect to learn a lot, fast!
