Help Me Out If You Would

I'm tinkering with the comments settings. I think I have it set to only the comments of trusted commenters will go straight through. Everything else will be in queue till I approve it.

So if I know you, sign in with typekey, and leave a comment here, I'll add you to the trusted list. Well, I will if I figure out how to do it [g] So you can help me experiment!

[tells Russ to breathe] promise I'll try not and blow up the blog!

A bit later: because things are still a bit wonky template wise, you may have to sign in to typekey and then come back to the blog's main page, then click on the comment link. That's what I had to do to be able to comment. Otherwise you get trapped in a never ending circle [g]

When signing into Typekey, it helps if you select the "keep me signed in for two weeks" option.

At least, that's the rumor.

Oh, thank heaven you're back. Now the proper balance of the universe is restored. Hallelujah, and pass the latte!

One itty bitty glitch... when I first clicked on the link in the post wanting to comment, the screen told me I was signed in but failed to mention my name. I attempted to make a comment, and the comment was deep-sixed because I wasn't signed in. I clicked the link to sign in, asked to stay signed in for 2 weeks, and then it took me right back to the place where I wanted to make a comment. Which I promptly made, and as you can see above, it promptly was posted.

I've been using LJ for so long, I keep trying to reply to individual comments! Can't do that in MT.

So it accepted your comment. Wonder why? Somethng esle to figure out. I have it set to only publish the comments of trusted commenters right away, so it should have held your comment. But when I looked, it had you listed as a trusted commenter, even though I didn't tell it you were.

Hmmmm.....
