When Blogger introduced threaded commenting a while back, I was so excited. It basically meant that could reply directly to a comment left on my blog. However, when I did what I was supposed to do, it did NOT work. I could see the and use the reply button from my phone, but not the blog. I tried just about EVERY "fix" I found online and nothing worked. I am SO happy that I finally got threaded comments to work!!
If you've done all the normal stuff you're supposed to do and it's still not working, try this {Huge disclaimer alert! This worked for me without changing my blog and it should for you too, but I'm not responsible if it doesn't. Capiche?}
I was nervous that it would change up stuff on my blog and I'd go back to a blank template and I'd have to redesign all my cuteness all over again, but I was so desperate for it to work, that I just crossed my fingers, hit save and voila! The only thing that changed was that the reply feature was now working! Yahoo!! So now I can reply to peeps who are nice enough to leave a comment instead of writing a whole new comment myself! So loving that!

Oh my goodness - thank-you SO SO SO much!!! Not only did it fix my threaded comments, it also fixed my blog roll (which hadn't been working for a few days).

Hi Chrissy!
DeleteYou can find how to do that with my idol Kristen at Ladybug's Teacher Files here: http://ladybugsteacherfiles.blogspot.com/2011/04/video-tutorial-leaving-direct-links-in.html
Hope that helps!
Oh, I want to try that so bad but I am so scared!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteA Teeny Tiny Teacher
You should do it...it's actually a lot of fun once you have it!
DeleteKristin - I tried it....nothing happened....except my numbered comments are gone. BUT I still can't reply to comments..lol
DeleteI HAD to do it. I was desperate! I just did it like a bandaid, girl. I went through it fast & just pushed save before I had a chance to stop myself!
ReplyDeleteWell, now I know one thing about being a new blogger. . . when I started mine, it already had that reply feature added. . . I'm so weak at figuring some of this blog stuff out, that this was a nice addition to already have! Now I'm going to follow your directions to see how to add my signature. . . I'm loving reading your blog. Thanks for sharing.

I can not get it to work on my Mac or IPad but it works on my iPhone. I would love to use this feature but I am so worried about doing it wrong.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked the gifts! :) Sorry I was a bit of a mystery there for awhile! I love the threaded comments! I tried to post back to all my readers because I know they take the time to read my post.
ReplyDeleteI love them! I am a huge coffee drinker, but I can't bring myself to use the cup because it's so darn cute!
DeleteThanks a bunch :)

ReplyDeleteI REALLY want threaded comments and like Jen, have had issues. I think I might bite the bullet and try it. I promise I won't blame you if something goes wrong lol.
ReplyDeleteJourney of a Substitute Teacher
Well boo! Nothing happened. No threaded comments :( But nothing happened to my blog either lol. I still may monkey around *sigh*
DeleteAw man! It seems to work for some and not for others, but I seriously think I tried a thousand different things. I couldn't believe this was so simple and actually worked for me. Did you happen to add a code to have numbered comments? I think I read somewhere that that might be the problem.
DeleteIf I see anything else, I'll pass it along.
Ahhh I got it!!!! I did a combo of yours and the other website :) Ahh but now my numbered comments are gone lol.
DeleteJourney of a Substitute Teacher
Awesome!! I don't miss the numbered comments because now I'm using Rafflecopter for my giveaways and I don't have to count them myself.
DeleteI'm loving this feature!!
Hmmm I may have to check that out. Thanks! Now that I have threaded commenting, I don't want to give it up lol :)
DeleteYOU ARE A LEGEND!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you soooo much for this info
