The vanishing part is 'new' becoz usually if the Comment doesn't show up immediately it just used to mean it had to be approved or read by the Blog Author first and would show up later. I've taken to what you do, go back and see if my Comment Posted, since I like to read the Comments of other Readers of Favorite Blogs anyway, it's how you discover the Community beyond just a Blog. I Hope Blogger fixes this problem soon, some Dear Readers have been sending me Private E-Mails, but it shouldn't have to be so hard and frustrating for the Community to interact.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-27109893372460617372022-05-19T01:42:33.119-05:002022-05-19T01:42:33.119-05:00I don't get emails from everyone even thought ...I don't get emails from everyone even thought a comment will post.

All of a sudden, there is a new comments box on some of the blogs and it makes it easy for me to choose to comment with my url. Yours is one of them so I can comment more often now. However, I truly believe this will change in the future.dkzodyhttps://dkzody.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-51663539830750534602022-05-17T08:24:27.278-05:002022-05-17T08:24:27.278-05:00Interesting thought about my Google name.

It might perhaps have something to do with your google name - was it always Kathy G. or you used the name of your blog -'the second half of my life' to publish a comment. Anyway, the internet will offer you a solution.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-43923678325457242832022-05-17T03:58:24.069-05:002022-05-17T03:58:24.069-05:00When your comment does not appear it is because it...When your comment does not appear it is because it has gone into the spam folder of the owner of the Blog. It is worth everyone checking their spam folder often and "releasing" those comments captured there. They will then appear in the post in question.<br /><br />So there's nothing wrong at your end. It is at the other person's end that the problem occurs. In a way, this is a good thing, because there has been a lot of spam comments lately advertising various things. So it's good that Blogger captures them before they are published.<br /><br />God bless.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.com
