How to Comment on This Blog

Greetings, Gentle Readers.

I appreciate your attendance.

I appreciate and respond to all comments.

I have learned that the commenting system is irritating.

This is the procedure:

1. Click on “Be the first to respond” or “# responses so far”. This is at the bottom of the post.

2. After you type your thoughts and submit or enter (I’m unclear because as the “administrator” of the blog, it doesn’t ask me for this step)

3. It goes to a Spam folder, and then I have to mark it “not spam”. After that, it goes to a pending folder, and then I have to approve it. THEN it appears!

The commenting system isn’t very good. My own replies go to the spam folder and I have to do the process with them too. It also doesn’t give anyone confidence that their remarks have gone through.

Oh, and you might suspect this of me – I correct your typos, and remove anything that I deem too personal for the World Wide Web. (Please feel free to correct my typos too!)

It might be possible for me to change the annoying characteristics of the commenting system. However, my attempts might break the whole blog, so let’s just limp along with the current method for now.

What do you think? Want to try responding to this?

P.S. If you don’t see your comment for awhile, it might mean I am in the Land of No Electricity or Internet. Eventually I’ll catch up with you!

    • Melissa, I hope to see you in July. I removed the dates from your comment so the bad guys wouldn’t know when to find us there. Thanks for your faithful reading, appreciating and commenting!

  2. Love Trail Guy’s photo — gorgeous!

    I know what you mean about being afraid to mess with something on your site for fear it will mess something else up 🙂

    • Cheryl, I was standing there telling him what to do, and then I edited it on the ‘puter. Couldn’t just let the man take credit! And it is So Very Easy to mess up my website. . . I learned that I have to disable the contact plug-in before adding new paintings to the site. Who would have ever guessed that was necessary??? Could drive a woman to chocolate for sure.
