I created a new forum topic yesterday in hopes of a resolution soon as I haven't heard anything back on the form I submitted. Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Please submit your request via the form again. I discovered we had a small issue with the form earlier and it's now fixed.

Let me know if you still have trouble!

Thanks so much for the information! I never received a warning about affiliate links in my dashboard (as the page on links suggests).

You would have seen a notice in your dashboard if your account had been suspended. Since this isn't the case, what did happen was that the links in your posts were changed to this URL:

http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/

Also, I'm not sure if you would receive an email notification that the form was submitted correctly. If you don't hear anything back in a couple of days, could you please start a new thread to describe your issue in detail, and add the word modlook in the Tags section in the right column so Staff will respond.

When I submit the form should I get an email or notification it has been submitted? It doesn't appear to be working for me (in firefox or ie) - so I've either submitted it 5 times or none at all...and I really don't want to be that person.

I wish I did have such an organised mind. (why I haven't done categories)...

And those categories wouldn't reach people who are coming out of abusive relationships, or those interested in psychopathy. Which is, I guess where my usual readers are from. Normally it wouldn't include humour.

But this has taught me to SLOW DOWN and THINK ... :) but i appreciate that I will never be as good as you, in terms of librarian thinking but I will try!!

So, if I keep the tags down ( I do not put categories, as I don't have those on my page) - it should be ok?

Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you for the advice. Panic over I managed to put the post back up again.

Does this mean that I have been blocked? As the link says something about mature content? Which I do not think it is? its a resource and advice page for support. Some of the topics are different things - like sociopath, humour and comedy, as this was what the post was about. Is this going to pick up as spam? as it genuinely wasn't.

If I was blocked how would I find this out?

Thank you and sorry for so many questions, it is just that I am new, so do not really know what the rules are, I will think next time I am doing tagging.

Doing that simply breaks links of posts that are already published and indexed by search engines like Google. Consider that Google sends significant traffic to blogs while wordpress.com topics pages send a dribble.

You need to do what I said above. Edit the posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ and remove the superfluous categories and or tags from them. Then click "update".

When it comes to Categories and Tags, assigning the least combined number of relevant ones is the rule of thumb. Will you please check out the reasons for non-appearance here?

If you have assigned a combined total that exceeds 15 Categories/Tags to your posts, then you need to edit and delete. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ After removal note it may take several days for your posts to begin displaying there.

This has been happening since yesterday. The last two posts do not show, apart from people who are logged.

I have gone back into the posts, checked and the right tags are there. It isn't because there are a lot of new posts either, as the post I put up before the last 2 posts does show.

The tags I am looking at are sociopath, psychopath, comedy, humour, well any of the tags my posts are not showing? They are not being publicised for some reason?

Is there a reason for this, and is there anything that I am doing wrong?

Other people being able to see what I write is important, and i am really confused what I am doing wrong?

After 243 articles, closing in on 50,000 reads in 86 countries (since Feb. 25th) even though football is only played in America. So to have the blog propel me to 4 different American nationwide radio shows, about to produce my first book, and have former players want me to write for their websites has me totally perplexed. I came to wrodpress over other blog choices out there because of the outlets like Fresh Pressed and the support of a large active community. I just haven't seen evidence of it.
