Testing

Blogger seems to have lost the ability to pick up my post feed, and the thumbnail widget no longer appears in Blogs Followed widget.

This is a test as I troubleshoot.  My previous post went almost completely unnoticed without the thumbnail "tickler" in the widget.

  1. Jonathan,
    There is definitely something up with Blogger.
    I noted on my blog that new posts were NOT appearing consistently at the top of my blog list. In some cases new posts were hidden among the blogs not shown, until you click "see more".
    Confusingly, some new posts and associated blog jumped to top of the list, as your test post did. I was unaware of your previous post - which may explain the fall off in comments!

    1. Thanks, Neil. Yeah, I reckon Blogger is having a moment. Luckily, my Test post appeared in the widget after some work, but without the thumbnail in the widget very few actually saw my Austrians!

    2. Sounds like an Austrian problem. The Mem would agree.

    3. Perhaps it was an Austrian problem!

  2. Did the same with my last post. I looked at all the possible fixes and nothing worked, so I did what I always do with work problems and gave up. 24 hours later it sorted itself out.

    1. Happy to see that I was not the only victim, but many other bloggers' effort continued to come through. Misery loves company, you know. I cannot give up on something that annoys me...

  3. My Latest blog post seems to be doing exactly the same thing - did you find a fix or did it just work eventually?

  4. Hi, there's a general problem with post visibility. I'm seeing it on mine and others too. Sometimes posts appear in the "blog list" after a few hours...
