Kate has a few words to share on current technical problems in BlogClan
Hi BlogClan
A lot of comments have been going straight into the Spam folder since I updated WordPress. I am currently experimenting to solve this problem. You can make commenting easier by registering as a subscriber (this may or may not help. I don’t know yet). And I have installed some fierce anti-spam software as an added precaution. Please leave feedback here about the new measures and any problems you are having.
I also know that forms are currently not working and I am trying to find a solution to this. Please bear with me.
Please note that you do not need to register as a subscriber in order to comment on BlogClan; registering may simply help you bypass the spam filter more easily (this is only theoretical)
Thank you for you patience 🙂
UPDATE: Forms are now fixed! 😀 😀
Test
Logging in makes my name Glade542 instead of Gladepaw. How do I change this?
Use your profiles setting page. You can access this from the drop down menu in the top right hand corner of your browser window once you are logged in. Change your Nickname to Gladepaw and choose Display Name as from the drop down menu.
Okay, thx for letting us know Kate. I’ll definitely look out for that in the future ;D
Hi

I know all about the anti-spam software… everything I try to post ends up being counted a spam so I get the notice. But the comments still do get posted so… 😛
I’m gonna switch off the anti-spam software right now. It is making BlogClan NO FUN! 🙁
histuffthingstestyoudontneedtomodthisyay
I wonder if I’m the reason why there’s that “Stop Spammers” feature now 😛
Sometimes, I spam on wikichat when I’m the only person on. 😛
I usually spam when I’m Secret Page hunting or I’m multitabbing 😛
Same 😛
Well, I filled up like a page of the tavern with totally irrelevent and useless comments, sooooo
😛
OKAY GUYS THIS IS THE THIRD-TO-LAST STRAW. TODAY I WAS TRYING TO MAKE THE RESULT FOR MY NTA WHEN I TRIED TO POST AND IT GOT ME ON THE STOP SPAMMERS PAGE. NOW MY 30-MINUTE HARD WORK IS GOT FOREVER D:
I’m so sorry! I will switch off the anti-spam software right now. It is making BlogClan NO FUN! 🙁
Oh starclan .-. I know this too… calm down and try it again later. Amd copy it before you’ll send it that smth like this doesn’t happen again
I WAS BANNED!
I’m so sorry! The anti spam software is very aggressive and complicated and a whole bunch of people have been stopped at the gates. This is not what I want, so I am going to try to fix it. I’m glad you’re commenting now! 😀
hi
Hello 🙂
Hey
Kate or Jayie or any mod,
I’ve been trying to turn off my subscription to the Tavern and the link to access my personal page doesn’t seem to be working. Is there any way this can be fixed?
Thank you!
I’ve unsubscribed for you. I hope that works. Let me know if you’re still having problems.
Oh, okay! Thank you so much, Kate! 😀
Hi Kate! I’m enjoying BlogClan, but today I wrote a long message about three novellas I suggested for you and the others, but when I sent it I closed the tab and reopened it a few minutes later. I was still logged in I think, but the messge was gone! Was this normal or did it disappear? D:
Eek, I think there must have been a connection error your end. Unless you made the comment a few days ago when I had some mean anti-spam software running that seemed to hate comments and want to destroy them (it’s not running now). My advice in future is, with long comments, to copy (ctrl+V) your text before clicking the post button just in case…
Hi!!!!!!!
Hi Kate!
I have a problem about commenting. It will just dissapear after i post it.
I dont even know you can read this…..
Your comments have been accidentally going into the Spam folder. Flowerstream found this one. Hopefully, now you’ve been officially unspammed, your comments will appear ok. *dives into Spam Folder to look for more comments*
Hopefully Everything will be sorted out!
well, at least we can see your comments now!
