  I can’t access my orange notifications box. There is a like star stuck in it, When I click to access it the Icon spins and spins but nothing happens.
  I have refreshed several times. Logged in and out several times.
  I have another blog on WP and the notifications seem fine there.

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

  I have the same problem so am hoping this is a general WP problem which will be fixed? I’ve checked all my settings and they seem to be right.

  This is the only workaround I have managed to find. For the mean time it allows you to view your notifications and clear them from the list, but the drop down from the speech bubble and the admin bar are still not working :(
