... At the end of each posting, there is a line that indicates who posted the posting. In the same line, there is a link that says "Comments," which identifies how many comments have been left.
Step 1
Click on the word "comments," and a box appears with instructions.
Step 2
Type your comment in the space provided.
Step 3
Below the space where you typed your comment, you will see a set of letters that look like they have been stretched. Type these letters into the "Word Verification" box that appears below them. This is a feature designed to stop spammers from having computers automatically leave comments on a blog.
Step 4
Choose an identity. If you have a Google or Blogger account, you can choose the first choice and identify yourself this way. Otherwise, choose "Other" or "Anonymous" . I will not be offended if you want to remain anonymous!
Step 5
Finally, click on "Publish Your Comment." (You can preview the comment before this if you want to and make changes.)
My step 1
Whenever a comment is posted, I am notified by email so that I can check over the comments. I am looking for two things:
- personal details about me that may make it possible for me to be identified. This is a concern because being away for three months it could put my home security at risk; and just as importabtly anything which may lead to personal identity as theft.
- offensive material, spam, and anything 'inappropriate'.
My step 2
Once I have checked over the posting it will appear on the blog.
Once comments have been left on the blog, anybody can read them by clicking the "Comments" link at the end of the posting. When there are multiple comments to a posting, they appear in the order they were made.
I will try and post these instructions again just before I sail - so - if you follow these instructions and find them confusing please let me know so I can amend them before reposting.
THAT is it! Good luck, I hope to hear from you soon.
