Hello,
I have had my blog for several years and there are more than 1000 posts on the blog, lately I have not been able to post anything to the blog, all of the posts goes into the Drafts of the blog and not on the blog where it becomes visible to the public. Can anyone help with this question please?
thanks in advance.
The blog I need help with is mariokenny.wordpress.com.
We need a link to the blog in question to give you accurate advice.
Hello Auxclass,
Thanks much for your quick response the link is http://www.mariokenny.wordpress.com I have removed several old posts and I am willing to remove more if this solves the issue, please let me know if you can help or advise me how to help myself, if you can.
thanks in advance
Don't delete anything else.
First of all, if you're using Windows, update your Windows 7. Several people are having weird problems that simply updating solves.
Secondly, under Settings->Writing, have you selected "Wordpress should correct invalidly nested XHTML"? That's important
Thirdly, which browser and version are you using? If it's IE, can you try a different one and see if you can publish the posts?
I have just done everything you suggested above & cannot post. I posted 1 post earlier, reblogged another & now cannot type into the posting field, just into the title field. Please help!
(1) H are you are connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com? (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up)
(2) Exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you don’t know click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/

Hi @mariokenny,
Sorry to hear that you are having some troubles posting to your blog. I see that @timethief has already done a lot to try and help you, thank you @timethief ;)
As previously requested, can you please tell us exactly which browser you are using? Just copy/paste what you see on this page: http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
Secondly, what is the error that you are experiencing exactly? When you say that you cannot post, what does that mean? Are you unable to access the post editor or is there some kind of error? A screenshot would be especially helpful in this case.
Instructions for making a screenshot: http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/
Thanks!
I can't post in my blog either because I can't get into it. My blog is called diakiws blog. User name was diakiws. Was changed to jdiakiwsblog. But this gets me into a new blog with none of my diakiws blog posts. I ave been trying for weeks to get help but no one helps. Please can u ?
This is common when changing the name of the blog. I'm sure I've answered you in at least one other thread.
No. I have not had one response
Weird, I could swear that I had. I'll flag this for staff attention again.
I am not changing the name of the blog, no changes occurred for several years
Yes but jdiakiwsblog did. And it's a common source of issues.
What is the URL of the blog you can't access?
Macmax,
this is the URL https://mariokenny.wordpress.com/
The problem is I cannot post to the blog from the MAIN publishing page, BUT I can post to the QUICK POST page.
After I have loaded up the desired text and pdf files to the MAIN publishing page, and after I press the PUBLISH button, the post does not publish.
Would you please tell us which browser (and version of) you're using?
Is this your answer?
Your User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/536.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1084.52 Safari/536.5
Your IP Address: [removed]
windows 7
google chrome
That should work. Do you have any better luck with a different browser, like Firefox?
