Moving My Travel Posts to Wordpress

Dear Blog Friends,

While I sort out my problems with Blogger commenting, I've decided to do all my travel posting on a Wordpress Account — "I Like to Travel, Come Travel with Me" and save Victorian Scribbles once again for Victorian and Belle Epoque Era related posts and book reviews.

I've tested out my Wordpress account, and I can comment on all Wordpress blogs and SOME Blogger  blogs (the problem being Blogger, not Wordpress).

Meanwhile, I have followed so many suggestions and written to Blogger so many times about the commenting problem. I CAN comment on some Blogger posts, but not on others, and there is no rhyme or reason to it, but I'm still working on it.

While I explore the cyber universe in my quest for answers, please do stop by my travel blog HERE and leave a comment. The current post is about my story collection, The Carnival of the Animals, because the stories are set all over the world, and reading is such a good way to travel.

But I have a post on Portugal coming up as well, so stay tuned.

Thanks for all the support and help. I do so appreciate it!

Meanwhile, please do visit the SCBWI Bookstop for some fabulous choices of children's books for your Christmas shopping. Just click on the link below:

I did just get your comment to my blogger blog and responded. I never could figure the bugs of their system.

Hi, Mirka, They are becoming somewhat of a mystery to me. Thanks for the advice on your earlier comment.

It's a puzzle, but I have solved it by using a different browser.

I would have been by earlier, but I've been offline due to my internet and telephone being down. My friend got my internet going again, but not my phone. I will follow you to Word Press.

Rosi, I tried your suggestion regarding Firefox, and that seems to be solving the problem. Thanks. I'm still moving my travel posts to Wordpress, though, and saving this blog for Victorian-Belle Epoque stuff, and the Fourth Wish as my main blog.

Elizabeth, thanks for following me to Wordpress. That will just be for travel posts. (At this point, anyway. If Blogger problems pop up again, I may go completely over to Wordpress.) Thanks for stopping by.

Some Bloggers might have turned off the posting function without realizing it. I certainly did. It had something to do with allowing Google Plus in a certain way in the tools section.

So it might not be you.

Oh, thanks for this, Mark! I've been pulling my hair trying to figure out what was the problem. I did download Firefox to comments on blogs that weren't working. But maybe that IS the problem. Thanks for stopping by.

Bummer. I wonder what's going on.

Blogging comments can be tricky sometimes. Hope you are able to sort it all out. :)

Hi, Jess, I think I did find a way to counteract that. For some reason, I can comment on some blog sites but not others. However, using a different browser on those, I'm able to comment. My friend Rosi gave me the solution. Thanks for stopping by.

Jess, and Donna, I did try the above solution to use Firefox as the browser when I can't comment on a blog. That does seem to work pretty well.
