Anyone get Blogger commenting to work?

Postby Spokavriel » Sun Jul 11, 2010 11:39 am

I have made comments to just about everything that has been posted at http://m-ivins.blogspot.com/ multiple times. I have tried all the comment as options that I have accounts with and still none of them show up.

So I'm wondering do any comments made on any Blogger account work any more?

I've been trying about once a week since the first post in this blog was made and I'm thinking about giving up on it.

I left a comment on a blogger/blogspot blog the day before yesterday and it worked. I also got a comment on a blog I write occasionally yesterday though that was Chinese spam. I think I might know your problem. I've had a similar problem with the integrated comment form before the ones that opens in a new page or on it's own page works much better.

Do you know any way I could get the message to that guy then? You see he thinks no one is even looking at his work because we can't get comments to him.

He didn't put a link to his email anywhere that I noticed but he is on mediaminer I would suggest that you leave a review there or contact him via email through that site to let him know.

Main reason I was trying to get him a message on Blogger is because I can't seem to post reviews without an account to any of his chapters on Media Miner. If I could I would have been sending most of my comments on chapters in that way back before the most recent 2 chapters of Nodoka's Lesson were written much less the sequel to it.

The only other thing I can think of at the moment is to try different browsers since I believe the problem is that the embedded form is not compatible with all of them (I know it hates firefox).

Using Seamonkey. Its also a Mozilla project. Guess I don't get to say anything since I would rather stop using online than go through the mess of installing other browsers and uninstalling them again afterwords. I wouldn't keep the other browsers on my system.

Give this a try? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419/ or this https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/52809/ if you absolutely won't open another browser...

No thank you. For that to have any effect Blogger would have to do something other than tell me to update IE to view pages. And I refuse to do the so called upgrade that kills 90% of the user controls on Explorer.

Which version of Seamonkey? The v2 builds should be more compatible with everything that's out there, these days - but they also switched quite a few of the underlying components and such to being more like Firefox 3, which isn't as good for older systems (FF3's fun on the ten year-old system I'm using at this moment...)

This system is using parts that all became available 10 years ago. So I think I can see what you mean on the "fun" aspect. Its build 2.0.5

Hmm... I wonder if changing the UserAgent string would make a difference.

Did anyone ever say whether or not SM2 would work under Win98? I know FF3 won't (or at least it complains if you try to install it on Win98). I'm running a Linux setup alongside Win98 on this decade-old system... SM1 and Firefox 3.6, which runs okay, as long as I don't try to open a lot of tabs or visit a multimedia/script-heavy page. Probably would work better if I had more than 128MB of RAM in the system.

(Yes, for all those who are wondering, I do have more recent systems.)

I can't trust my Win 98 boxes online. I can't get antiviral software that is recent enough to really do so safely. But if you want to talk old hardware maybe I could try using a distro to make it so my Mac color classic could interface with the current internet. Its currently running OS7 Or would that still be System 7... I'll check next time I power it up.

Heh. One of these days, I really AM going to have to see if I can't get my old Commodore 64 to go on the net. :P

I never had a problem taking my Win98 tower online in recent years (and would still be doing it if hardware changes combined with driver issues hadn't screwed things up... a complete reinstall would fix it, but I'm too lazy to do that yet again)... but I have a hardware router, and know what to keep an eye on under Win98, more or less. :)
