What remains to now be done is configure some way of informing our affected readers about this "issue" and provide them some sort of work-around, the sort of which will depend on what Theme we are using and the features it offers.

Meantime, and to that end, I have rigged up a library Page on my header menu (Manifest Theme) -- thus:

I will now mark this thread as "resolved" . . .

It worked! Yeah!

Now, I'll change the number of posts per page back to 5 so it doesn't take so long to load.

I agree with you about our readers not being able to use the function properly while visiting our blogs. I hardly ever use the home page to look for posts, but I know visitors do.

Here's their FAQ on how to disable blocking on any particular Website:

http://www.donottrackplus.com/faqs.php#q4

Of course -- as I pointed out earlier and you quite correctly ask -- while I have resolved my particular issue (which was caused by Ghostery) a reasonable presumption might be made that readers using this or similar privacy protection tools will be unable to scroll back through our Blogs.

If that were the case, I would be left with a sense of unease about the development of this "feature" and its intended purpose.

I did change the number of posts per page on the Reading setting to a much higher number (15), so now the "load more posts" button shows up once and shows an additional 15 posts. But it stops then and there is no way to see any posts after that.

I was also wondering about the settings my readers have on their computers/browsers, and even if I can get it to work properly on my computer, what about the readers' computers?

I have resolved my issue following a suggestion from *justpi* that it was browser related -- it was, in my case the browser add-on "Ghostery"

I resolved the matter by adding WordPress to its "whitelist" (which raises another set of questions which I need not address here).

Do you have any security software running that blocks trackers?

1) The bug Patrick is experiencing is browser related.

You were quite right, justpi -- in this case the Browser add-on "Ghostery" which I resolved by adding WP to its whitelist.

Thank you very much . . .

2) The answer WP gave you is inaccurate: as I already pointed out, you can "completely turn it off" if you have the Custom Design upgrade (but WP doesn't reveal this because they don't want you to turn the feature off).

Yes, this is a new feature on my particular Theme, Chunk. No, you can't completely turn it off. Basically, everything you all said above is true. (Panos! Now I understand what you trying to say!)

Now what's this about a glitch/bug in the demi/semi-infinite scroll? You only made one click?

I made three or four earlier, and my version on Chunk is working fine for the moment. I am so sorry to hear this is happening on your blog! I hope this glitch is resolved quickly.

Thank you @TimeThief @justpl (Panos); @SensuousSinkSpiller; and @PatrickOBrian for weighing in with such useful information!

Okay, I can live with that, the "load more posts" feature is not such a big deal for me -- but -- the problem that I have (using the Manifest theme on my Blog) is that this feature does not scroll or load to "infinity" as claimed ... rather, it stops completely after just one load.

Bug, or by design?

If you have footer widgets, rather than it automatically continually loading additional posts on and on and on, it happens manually, and you click on the "Load more posts" button, and then it loads the next group of posts. It doesn't revert to the way it used to be, with the "previous posts" links, etc. They all still end up on the one same page. What they call "disabled" on the dashboard settings is actually making it manual, rather than automatic.

The only way to really disable it, is with the CSS upgrade.
