I’ve visited several of your sites in the last several days and commented but it doesn’t show that my comment posted. I was back and forth with wordpress this morning and they told me to clear my caches and links. After looking up what that was and how to do it, I’m still unable to comment on some sites (eg: Choppy, Dezi & Raena, etc.). Just wanted to let ya’ll know and if anyone else is having this problem and can help me out I’m all eyes.

About The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap
The year 1895 was filled with memorable historical events: the Dreyfus Affair divided France; Booker T. Washington gave his Atlanta address; Richard Olney, United States Secretary of State, expanded the effects of the Monroe Doctrine in settling a boundary dispute between the United Kingdom and Venezuela; and Oscar Wilde was tried and convicted for "gross indecency" under Britian's recently passed law that made sex between males a criminal offense. When the news of Wilde's conviction went out over telegraphs worldwide, it threw a small Nevada town into chaos. This is the story of what happened when the lives of its citizens were impacted by the news of Oscar Wildes' imprisonment. It is chronicle of hatred and prejudice with all its unintended and devastating consequences, and how love and friendship bring strength and healing.
Paulette Mahurin, the author, is a Nurse Practitioner who lives in Ojai, California with her husband Terry and their two dogs--- Max and Bella. She practices women's health in a rural clinic and writes in her spare time. All profits from her book are going to animal rescue, Santa Paula Animal Shelter, the first and only no-kill shelter in Ventura County, CA, where she lives. (see links below on Ventura County Star Article & Shelter)

I’ve had a few readers say the same thing and I had a different type of glitch about the same time. You might need to contact WP Support team and have them fix the situation behind the scenes, like they did my problem.
Best of luck.
Thanks. I’ll try that again. I was on line with them this morning but it didn’t resolve the situation. I’ll go back and give it another try.
Good luck.
I have also a few blog where there is a problem.Has try a lot but it doesn’t Change.Sorry I can’t help you
Thanks for answering this, Lou. Appreciated.
I’ve not had THIS problem Paulette. I am seeing your comments on my blog. So yay me. But know how frustrating it is when it isn’t working….
Yes, It’s showing they’re posting on your site but not on several others. And I like my cyber friends to know I stopped by. Thankfully, I’m still in communication with some. 🙂
Wiley old WP…..
Yup. 😉
I’ve been having the identical problem. Go to your reader management and reset all your follower contacts. That seems to be helping. It’s WordPress. They are messing with the software again.
Good suggestion. That one hasn’t been mentioned yet. Thanks Marilyn! ❤
I think it will be okay in a while, Paulette. Sometimes WordPurress makes some changes without letting us know and then nothing works properly anymore…*rolls eyes*… Extra Pawkisses for a smoothful day 🙂 ❤
Thanks sweetie, the roll eyes made me laugh. That’s what I needed most. It’s weird because some of the sites show my comments posted and like Colleen (chatter master) above mentioned. But on others it shows “no comments” after I’ve put mine down and hit post. Let’s hope if nothing else handles it that time will. Thanks again, especially for the pawkisses. 🙂
99% of the time, I’m reading from the WP app on my phone or tablet. I did have a time or two where I typed a comment and it never sent. It only happened a couple of times and I don’t remember the blog. Sorry, I’m no help. However, I do agree cleaning out caches and restarting things take care of 50% of problems.
You’ve helped by stopping by and joining the conversation and I appreciate that. Thank you! 🙂
How ironic! I just tried to comment on Choppy’s post and couldn’t! I could reply to you, tho. Please see if those came through to you. Weird!
Just went and checked. Yes, and I commented back to you at Choppy’s. Very weird. I asked Sarah if she saw my comment when it didn’t post and even contacted her in a message on facebook to ask. Very weird that you could comment on my comment but not the site itself. Hmmmm?
Have you tried logging out and logging back in again ? I know that that was a suggested cure all a few years ago Paulette 🙂 ❤
Hi Ralph. Hope all’s well with you. ❤ Yes, I did try that. And clearing my history. And Caches. And anything else I could clear, lol. I've a couple good suggestions here that I'll also try and see what happens. 🙂
I hope by now you are back to normal Paulette. Yes, all is well with me. Thank you for asking and I hope that you are well and happy my friend 🙂
So nice to see you pop up again over the cyber horizon Ralph. I’m glad you’re okay. And for now seems like my wordpress is working. Tks again.:-)
I sometimes find friends in the spam folder for no apparent reason.
Hi Clowie. Yes, me too. But this seems to be that some comments take on some sites and on others it shows no comment. The inconsistency is odd. I’ll try a couple more things and if no go, let time take its course. Hugs to you and your bipeds. 🙂
I replied to a comment over at our site – I think I have it mostly fixed. I saw some of your comments in the spam filter and need to go retrieve those.
Tks but this has happened on a few other sites that I’ve up till now had no trouble posting on and then all of a sudden today I’m able to post on yours. And even if it went to spam wouldn’t it show up as a comment as my others have before or was? It’s confusing. But thanks again for checking and getting back to me on it. 🙂
Thanks for letting me know. 🙂
Saw your comment on Choppy
WP is always glitchy – they are fiddling backstage with some new offering and it’s making the public part quirky…again. The enemy of good is better.
(And always good to make a habit of checking spam folder every so often during times like these)
Hang in there. Blog on.
Hi there philosophermouseofthehedge! I really appreciate your stopping by and giving me your feedback. I check spam regularly and that hasn’t seemed to be the problem. I’ve been working with WordPress tech team and they have told me that is’ not my site as they trial tested me commenting on a site. They said it’s with the sites I can’t comment on. And they said that an alternate way to try to comment is to go through the search bar with the blogs link and not try to comment from Reader. Haven’t done that yet but will. I hope it’s as you mentioned, new offering. I’m with you on “good” and hey, if it ain’t broke… By all means feel free to stop by any time. All friends of Choppy’s are friends of mine. And for good measure I’ll throw that in for Mr. Schooner as well. 😉
Has the problem been fixed?
Hi and thanks for asking. For now, it seems to be. I spent a lot of time with the tech people and doing what cyber friends suggested and that did help. Have a good day my friend. 🙂
Have a pleasant one too, friend.
Glad to hear it is working now
🙂
Sometimes WP moves comments into the trash or the spam folder of the blog one has written a comment, without any recognizable reason. 😉 A very experienced blogger once told me that this is a sign that WP is working behind the scenes.
Hi and thank you freidendenkerin. That’s what I’m hearing from other bloggers as well. I sure do appreciate your stopping by and joining the conversation. 🙂
I am getting everything from you on my website. I hope WordPress gets it fixed if it is on your end. That is so aggravating to deal with, isn’t it?
I’ve made several comments on your site that don’t show as posted. I usually don’t miss any of yours so if you don’t see me there it’s probably not cause I didn’t try. Hope you have a peaceful happy weekend. ❤
Littlesundog: I just read and commented on your recent post today and it didn’t show it was posted. A Sticky Situation: about thistle, etc. If you get this and you did see my comment in your spam or otherwise could you please let me know if you can spare a minute. If not, I know how busy you are. I just would like you to know I saw your post and appreciated it.
So far I did not run into that problem , Paulette. The reason comments on my site don’t post right away is because I have to approve them first for they are posted.
Hi and thank you Francina. So nice to hear from you. I hope you are well and enjoying. I understand and usually when that happens there’s a notification that says “being moderated.” The problem I was having, which I think is resolved, was it wouldn’t take my comment on several sites that I had just days earlier no difficulty posting on. Again, thank you and I think my issue is handled. 🙂
Lovely to hear from you as well, Paulette . All well here, hope on your site as well . ❤
Thanks my friend. All is well this end also. 🙂
MOL You sound like mommy. She had to look those things up da furst time too. And then learned what a real pain it can be when you do it wrong. We’re just glad it’s worked out however dat happened. It happens to us sometimes too and we never know why or how it gets fixed, it just eventually does. Big hugs
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
If I sound like your mommy then I’m in good company. Things seemed okay for a couple of days and then today I tried to comment on a couple of sites and it wouldn’t post. Oh well, I tried. I’ll just give it some time to see if it resolves. Hope ya’ll have a good week. ❤
You have a pawsum week too. Big hugs
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena

The only reason that it is happening is that someone must have marked one of your comments as Spam.
Tell the sites you can’t comment on via their Contact page that your comment is most likely in their Spam, would they kindly go and check. Once a person uncheckes the Spam comment as not being Spam, WordPress (Automattic) should automatically let your comments go through atfter that.
Hi and thank you, G. I appreciate your input. 🙂
