I was. The last week or two (or maybe longer?), I couldn’t leave a comment on a Blogger blog to save my life – just kept getting trapped in an endless loop of sign-in then word verification. Ugh!! Well I finally Googled the problem and found the fix, which worked like a charm! Ahhhhh. Here’s what you do:
1. Close all web browser windows but one.
2. In that window, clear all of your cookies, cache, passwords, everything (in my IE browser, I go to Tools, then Internet Options, then under Browsing History I click “Delete” and leave all boxes checked and click “Delete” again).
3. Then go to www.blogger.com and login, but here’s the catch, make sure you DO NOT check the box for “remember me.” If that box is checked, you must uncheck it.
4. Then you can go to any Blogger blog and you’ll be able to comment as yourself again.
Some weird bug with Blogger lately, I guess. Bah!
PS: Since my mom complains mightily if I put up a post without pictures, here’s a totally unrelated family shot from our recent outing to a fondue restaurant. The girls said the chocolate course was “Awesome!” and TubaDad and I thought so too. Which reminds me, next time must have the kids wear black while they’re eating stuff dipped in dripping, melty chocolate!!

I have problems with Blogger on a daily basis pretty much. Certain blogs I haven't been able to comment on in over a year! I have definitely had the problem you have described in the past. Thanks for the fix!
ReplyDeleteI almost didn't read the post because I didn't expect a lovely picture, yea.

Thought you'd like that one, mom! :-)
ReplyDeleteSharon -- hope it helps! I have been so frustrated lately.
ReplyDeleteThis place totally looks like a place a princess would eat! :)
ReplyDeleteYES!!!!!!! thank you! i thought it was just me-- i was leaving comments using my name/url
ReplyDelete:)
Could it be La Fondue? Love, love, love La Fondue! If it's not then I NEED to know another fondue restaurant to try locally!! Please, do tell!!
ReplyDeleteIt's La Fondue. Mmmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I've been fighting with this for over 3 weeks now. I've checked the blogger site and all it says is that they're working on it. Will try your solution tonight.
ReplyDeleteThe family pic is so fun! How does TubaDad enjoy dining with 3 princesses? He's a lucky man! Mmmm...a fondue restaurant sounds yummy!
I'm goign to have to try as well, lots of problems but only on certain blogs????
ReplyDeleteOh and also my 4 year old does dance, she did it last year as well, luckily only one routine and costume, but of course they want them to look like street walkers, which I refuse.
Leah and Maya: I know, it was driving me NUTS! It seemed like blogs that allowed anon comments worked (even though I wasn't commenting as anon) and there were some type of comment forms that worked and some that didn't (maybe the popup comments worked?), but I never could remember which one worked.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting how to fix that, it was driving me nutters!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was just me too! So frustrating. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this fix info. The blogger.com site just says they're working on it (for weeks now!!). If you also have a fix or answer for why feedburner has such dismal performance delivering emails, that would be great. I didn't receive a feedburner email for an entire month. Now some are showing up. And by the way, your girls are adorable!

Thank you so much - I though it was me. Thank you also for the simple instruction on how to fix it.
ReplyDeletewill try your fix - I've been having trouble for almost a week. Sometimes it works fine, other times I can't comment (click on comment but nothing happens), other times it asks me to sign in but then posts as anonymous. So frustrating!
ReplyDeleteWe love fondue at our house. Hubby and I went out to a place...I loved it, he couldn't believe he was paying and still having to cook his own food. Hee he heh
