"Learn how to use Blogger!!!"
Here's the thing: After I type my daily post and publish it, Blogger moves to another page. It is a page that is kind of a REPORT of how many people read my blog and what posts they read. There is a little section that shows "Comments" and the number of them. I KNEW it was there, but I just ASSUMED that I already knew if anyone commented, so I never paid attention to it UNTIL TODAY.
What happens is if someone reads a post that is BEFORE today, and they go down to the bottom of it and click on "comments" to write a comment to me, the comment shows up under that date's post.
So if you read something I wrote a month ago -- or you watch a tutorial -- and you put a comment there TODAY, I won't know it. I will never see it, because I only see today. BUT, when I go to that "report" page and check on "comments", I can see every post that is posted TODAY!
Isn't that EXCITING!!! I am so excited that I am going to get showered and dressed and email Phylly to see if she wants to meet me for lunch today so I can tell her all about it. She just LIVES to hear whats on my mind, you know. (Don't I wish!)
I will probably have an exciting waiter story when I get back, so watch for another post today.
Hugs to all and THANKS for the comments!
Joy
Testing, testing. I have left you comments, most recently on the same day as your post. After I select profile (drop down menu), then click Publish, there's a message that indicates that you need to approve it before it will appear.
ReplyDeleteI don't comment on many blogs, so when your blog shows "No Comments" when I know I've sent one, I feel less likely to comment in the future. I don't have a blog so of course I have no idea how to help you with this. Just thought you might like to know. Blessings to you today!
Ten seconds later... my comment appeared. Mysteries of the Internet, I guess. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat is strange. When I leave a comment, I am asked to select a profile - I choose anonymous because I don't have any of the others. Actually, I am not sure what the others ARE.
ReplyDeleteI hit publish and -voila- there is my comment. Nothing is said about Joy needing to approve it first.
Carol (aka anonymous)
See Joy - you DO get comments!
Believe me! I have nothing to do with the way the comments work. If I did, I would change it. I know what you mean, Sandra, because there are some blogs that won't let me post either without a sample of blood and an Act of Congress!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Joy
I have tried to comment before to tell you how much I like your blouses! I haven't been using SFD very long but really like it and Glenda is a treasure. Love reading your blogs--your life is an adventure!

I just tried to leave a comment. Will try again.

Something showed "error" the first time. Joy I really like reading your blogs. Your life is certainly and adventure! Also love seeing your SFD blouses. I haven't used SFD very long but like it and Glenda is a treasure!
ReplyDeleteSheila
Have I left enough comments? LOL, ROF!!!
ReplyDeleteSheila
You sure are right about Glenda, Sheila! She is part of the reason I started doing a blog. I wanted to show off how great SFD is. One of these days, I'm going to make a pattern for a tee shirt for Jerry. He needs a round back correction.

I checked for your blog last night and didn't see the one you posted for the 21st. As for comments, well I usually leave one for you, but since I email and talk to you a lot, sometimes I just don't have anything new to say. I wouldn't want to repeat myself you know. Okay, I'm going to work on my red dress. I'm determined to get it finished so I can move on.
ReplyDeleteThere is a beautiful blue printed challis on Gorgeous Fabrics. It was a coordinate to a royal blue knit. Much prettier than the samples I showed you today. Oh, you texted me at lunch and I never checked to see what the message was. I better go check it out.
Hugs, Phylly
