Some of you have mentioned that you can't see your comments and they seem to disappear after you write them. Though I changed the comment format from a list to a thread so my responses would be more obvious, that is all I formally changed.
I have always had the blog set up so that I have to approve the comments and post them before they become visible. I do not believe that any comments have actually been lost. Those of you who have added a second comment out of concern, both of your comments are visible at my end.
I will try to look at my blog from someone else's computer to see if anything looks different that suggests why you might be having a problem. Only a few of you have mentioned this so I am assuming not everyone is having trouble leaving comments.
Nothing seems amiss as to my comments.

Thanks for letting me know. Mark tried commenting from his laptop, but it knew we were linked so it accepted it as a comment from me which is no help!

Hi Linda: This is an experiment. Hopefully, it will work. Cheers! Beth

I think that why I've been confused is that usually when the author has to approve comments you get a little pop-up message after you hit publish (like on my blog, hopefully) that tells you so. Nothing happens after I hit publish on your blog now, so the first couple of times it's thrown me.

If you hit preview you should be able to see your comment and then you can hit post.

No probs here. I just get a message saying comments are held for moderation, or something like that, as I always have.

Of course, I am looking everywhere trying to figure out how to add a message about the comments needing to be OK'd by me. Still can't figure out how or where to make that happen.
