non-contradictor Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 I have a blog on the forum. I changed my settings to the "only authorize guest comments." Today, I received four e-mails saying that I have new comments on my blog from a guest. None of the comments show up and I have not gotten anything, and cannot find anything, that would allow me to read them and "authorize" them. Am I missing something about this? Any help would be very much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's what happened. I added a comment to your blog while I was not logged on. It didn't show up. Since I had a copy of the comment in notepad, I tried again...same thing. Hmm! "What am I doing wrong?", I wondered dimly, "let me do this more slowly". Ofcourse, the same result. "Maybe it disallows comments from folks who aren't members. Let me log on and try again". When I did, I saw the three comments waiting for approval. I added a fourth one, so that it had my name on it. Then I donned my Moderator hat and deleted the three redundant copies. So, I'm sorry about the confusion. Now, I have to changed my nick . Any ideas, anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

non-contradictor Posted May 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Something else interesting I've noticed. There appears to be a problem with the "friendly url's" Sometimes the link works, and sometimes the page comes up incorrectly. (ex. Only half of the header appears, none of the "boxes" around the posts show up, some of the pictures have lines in them.) This has happened twice, and both times the problem was corrected by unclicking "friendly url's" in my blog settings. It isn't a matter of great importance to me that this problem be fixed, I don't mind the "non-friendly url's." I don't even know what makes them "friendly." I only checked the box because the "friendly" url is easier to give to friends. Haha, maybe that's why it's "friendly." I was just interested in what causes the problem.

DavidV Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 It was a bug with the forum software that caused the CSS link to break when friendly URL's were used. I fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
