Calling it Home: Are You a No-Reply Blogger?

January 16, 2013

Are You a No-Reply Blogger?

I need to thank my friend, Pam @ Simple Details for this one. As you probably know, I visit a lot of blogs. I try to leave comments to let the blogger know that I was there. And sometimes, I want an answer to a question about the post.

Well, it has been really quiet in the response department. Thankfully, Pam sent me a separate email telling me that I am coming up as "no-reply". This was particularly strange, because I did not change my settings at all. Pam thought she had read something about it happening to people who joined google+.

A couple of frustrating days later, and I found this post from Lisette @ Northern Belle Diaries. After following the steps....I am no longer a "no-reply" blogger. I tested it myself to make sure.
I apologize to anyone who has replied to me and wondered why I hadn't commented back...when appropriate.

The Pink Pagoda said...: Mine is highlighted so that means I'm okay? What I want to know is how do you change your settings so that you can reply to comments and the person gets it in email? I've spent so much time in settings trying to figure it out to no avail!; January 16, 2013 at 2:21 PM

My Interior Life said...: I haven't checked mine lately, but need to. I'm a little aggravated by Blogger lately in another department lately though. For some reason, my comments don't come to my email anymore. I never changed any settings, and when I've gone back in to check my email is there where it should be. I'm totally confused. The only way I know I have comments now is by checking my comments page. Uggh. Any tips for that?; January 17, 2013 at 8:17 PM
