Commenting Hiccup – My Bad

So you might have noticed that you haven’t been able to leave a comment over the past few days.  I was messing around with blog options and I checked a box that prevents people from leaving comments unless they’re registered users.  The problem is that there is no way to register because I hadn’t checked the box that allows people to register.  Sorry everyone.  I’ve since flipped it back so that anyone can leave a comment and people can now register for the blog.  Why would you want to register?  Well, I’ve hidden a gallery folder so it’s only viewable to those that have registered.  Can you guess which one?  Some future posts will also only be viewable to registered people.  I will keep commenting open to everyone unless the reply’s turn to spam.  I’ve had a few come through, but I have to approve any new comments so they get zapped before they go up.  So yeah, sorry about the screw up there people.  Continue to comment as usual. ^_^

    Haha! I was trying to comment on something just yesterday and couldn’t for the life of me figure out what I was doing wrong.

    Well, colour me confused. Normally I have updates posted via rss feed, though there is the ability to subscribe via email. However, neither involve logging in, which will be required to see certain posts, but can’t find any way to be notified when you make a registered-only post.

    I probably just over-rely on getting updates via rss feeds though; but checking 100+ sites manually each day on the off chance of an update does get rather time consuming without it!

      Well I’ll be making a registered post tonight to test it out. Watch out for it… It involves new art. ^_^

    Thank goodness! I like commenting on your thread and thought I was locked out.

    • Joe Randel Says:

      No, no. I’ve never had to block anyone out. We seem to have a pretty good group of visitors here, and for that I am thankful.

    Neat! Registered!

    Oh and I noticed the other day, I saw *commenting available to registered users* or something along those lines. I figured perhaps you had been getting problematic comments (spam or otherwise….) shrugged it off and figured I’d register later. But with news of registered viewable posts only… 🙂 Now I just need to be able to upload a icon lolz
