Several readers of my blog have expressed difficulty commenting on my posts. After several tests I contacted GoDaddy.com (this is the company my website is with). Following is the explanation and fix.
At the bottom of each post, there is a button that says either No Comments (if nobody has commented yet) or X comments (where "x" is the number of comments). When readers click on this a window pops up that allows them to type in a comment; however, the problem comes when commenters hit Publish. Instead of the comment automatically submitting, another window appears asking the commenter to select their profile (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). GoDaddy.com tells me the purpose of asking for a Profile is to avoid people submitting comments anonymously which, as you may have seen, can lead to ugly situations on the Internet. Most people have a social media account of some sort so selecting a Profile shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully this helps and I appreciate everyone's patience and understanding.
Alternatively, you can also submit a comment via my website (via Contact) or send me an email.
