It's Wednesday evening and none of my post links are showing up in the WordPress category or tag pages. I had a similar problem over this past weekend and it seemed fixed earlier...now I can not find anything of mine.

Not showing up on tag pages
-
-
Staff have said in the past that if you use more than a total of 12 categories and/or tags on a post, you'll be excluded from the global tag pages. That's not always the case, but it could well apply to your blog. Try reducing it to 12 and seeing what happens.
-
There is no reason - other than the above by raincoaster - why they would not show.
-
Your posts *are* showing on tag pages:
http://wordpress.com/tag/the-scrooge-report/
If they're not showing somewhere, please provide a link or example.
-
His posts were not there when I checked before. I checked that very tag page.
In fact, they're not showing now for the blog linked to his name. The only blog I see listed on that page is http://photozz.wordpress.com/
-
@ tellyworth...no, they are not showing up now.
-
I tried reducing my last post to 12 and nothing changed. I am not showing up just about anywhere.
All my 12 tags here are not showing up:
http://thescroogereport.wordpress.com/2008/04/24/bible-distribution-ruled-religious-activity/
-
Interestingly enough, the http://photozz.wordpress.com/ post was very strange in that the poster copied all my tags and used them on his post opposing my viewpoint. Things have gotten strange right about that time.
-
Since two staff members are apparently seeing two different things, I'm going to have to leave it to staff to figure this one out.
-
Your 'bible distribution' post is the top one here:
http://wordpress.com/tag/church-and-state/
It appears on all of its other tag pages as far as I can see. Which tag pages is it missing from? How soon after writing a post are you checking the tag pages?
nb Mark didn't say or see something different - he just pointed out there's no reason your posts wouldn't appear in tags.
-
Okay, then you and I are seeing two different things for sure.
http://thescroogereport.wordpress.com/ is definitely not showing for me on the Scrooge Report tag page. I do not see the Bible Distribution post on the Church and State page either. Not at all. The top post there is http://orichardcraigo.wordpress.com/2008/04/15/only-38-of-britons-believe-in-god/
-
@ raincoaster...I'm with you...I am seeing nothing! I'm out for tonight. I'll check back tomorrow. thanks!
@ tellyworth....thank you for checking on this!
-
Could it possibly be set to "Mature" for some reason? I don't know if staff could see it then, but I know I wouldn't be able to.
-
Same problem here. None of my posts are showing when I click on a tag or category...
-
I refer you back to my very first comment in this thread.
-
Aha - investigating something.
-
raincoaster - I am not using more than 12 tags/categories.
-
Well, not on all posts anyway. :)
The ones with fewer than 12 don't show up either.
-
concur here, using IE7; cleared cookies and cache. krateein and jesusis1 aren't in tags.
-
krateein, you used 13 on the two posts I counted. I have no idea if using more on SOME posts gets you banned even for the posts you use fewer on.
-
On your Settings tab, change your language to something else, Save Changes, then change it back and Save again.
There is a bug, which we're working on fixing, but that should sort things out in the meantime.
-
Does EVERYONE have to do this, or does it affect only a few blogs?
-
That worked. Thanks!
-
raincoaster - not everyone. just if this is happening right now.
-
it's definitely not affecting everyone, it's as freakish as that workaround ;)
rain you're in tags, i just checked. even your most recent post is there. -
Thanks. As always, I am so easily understood by those who know me.
-
It affects only a few blogs. We should have it fixed soon, but in the meantime if your posts aren't showing up at all in tags, give it a try.
-
I still need help....nothing showing.
-
Thanks telly! I did the "change your language" thing and it worked. Hope the bug clears!
