  When trying to schedule the day and time for a post, the boxes show momentarily then disappear. This started when the loading of photos box was changed, just as I was writing a post. Please help!

  It works in Internet Explorer, but not on MSN, where I do most of the blogging. Must be something that changed recently.

  Can you please check the Screen Options tab near the top-right of the Dashboard and make sure that the necessary modules are checked?

  If your MSN browser is based on Internet Explorer 6, I’m afraid we won’t be able to support it.

  The MSN browser is really Internet Explorer, but I don’t think they ever updated the MSN browser past IE 6.

  I just checked the Screen options and everything is checked except slug, whatever that is. I had already scheduled another post today with no problems. This problem began just as the change was made in the way the photo loading sizing was arranged. I was loading photos at the time, it changed mid-load. The schedule problem happened at the same time.

  So you’re no longer having trouble with this?

  I am still having the same problem that I first mentioned. When I try to set the time for a post to publish, the date and time show up then disappear before I can type in the info. Every time.

  I did some digging, and it looks like MSN Explorer is based on Internet Explorer 5.5, which means that we definitely can’t support it.

  IE 5.5 is over ten years old and don’t support modern web technologies.

  Would you please use Internet Explorer 9 instead, or IE 8 at least?

  The last time changes were made on wordpress that were a problem with poor msn, support was able to fix it. I was hoping they could do the same again.

  In the effort to take a screenshot, I noticed that the problem resolves itself, in other words, the date and time shows up after several seconds on the publish module. It seems to take a while to show is all. So, I can live with that. Thanks for the help.
