Posting Comments Issue

I know there have been issues where comments are not posting. I have removed the moderation of comments in order to help alleviate the problem. However, it sounds like some people are still having the problem. When I google the issue specific to Blogger, I’ve found that the problem probably relates to cookie tracking. The default setting in Incognito Mode is “Block Third Party Cookies in Incognito”. If you go to Settings and then Privacy and Security and un-check that option, it may resolve the issue. If you do that you may want to also turn on “Clear cookies and site data when you exit Chrome.” This option is in the same setting menu. This will help maintain your privacy when you exit Chrome. Just a warning that this option applies to all your browsing, even in normal mode. It’s not necessarily a bad thing to clear this information but if you are someone that relies on saved passwords,auto-sign in, and fill-in fields on websites, then that information will be cleared each time you exit Chrome. You will need to exit out of your browser for the settings to take effect.

Another option that helps is to post comments using a google account. The comments seem to work better with a google account vs. posting anonymous. You can create an anonymous google account for this.

It is odd to me that sometimes the comments work and sometimes they don’t. It’s also odd to me that when I googled the issue, there were comments about it from years ago but yet this issue seems to have only started with my blog a few months ago. Sorry for the frustration this is causing some of you. It is very frustrating for me and I am considering switching to a different blogging platform. If anyone has any recommendations, let me know.
