Can't post comments to Blog site

Since .Mac switched to Me.com, I cannot see comments on my blog site.
I can post/publish to the site from iWeb and others have said they can post comments (using Firefox, but not Safari). But when I go to view the comments, I get an error message:
# Exception: TypeError
# Message : Value undefined (result of expression postLinks.forEach) is not object.
# File : Comments.js, Line:138
I have not done anything differently in how I'm publishing the page.
I am using Safari 3.1.2 to view the site.
I am using iWeb '08 2.0.4 to publish the site.
I have also tried to use Firefox (3.0.1) to see the comments, and get this error message:
# Exception: TypeError
# Message : postLinks.forEach is not a function
I can see the comments if I open iWeb and read down the page. I cannot post comments using iWeb though.
Any ideas?

Can't post comments to Blog after MobileMe push

My blog will not allow anyone to post comments now, since the MobileMe migration. When you click "add comment" it brings up the MobileMe migration page with info on MobileMe. I believe that I have set up everything necessary on my computer for MobileMe, so how do I get the blog to quit directing to this page? I have two autistic children, and I use this blog for their therapists to post comments about their daily therapy sessions - I really need to get this fixed QUICK! Also, when publishing the blog, I get an error message at the very end - "error publishing" - but everything is visible like it published successfully. Thanks for any help.

It is not just the Blogs, my Photos pages won't allow comments either. I just started with iWeb a couple of weeks ago and it took me a while to discover that the comments feature was not working. Made me feel kind of foolish, I had asked some friends to check out my site and then was a little perturbed that they hadn't posted any comments.
I would hate to try setting up on another site as I like the basic simplicity of iWeb.
Does anybody know of anything else as easy to use? I'm in the trial period and if this doesn't get fixed I definitely will not be continuing.

How can you post comments during signal aquisition?

How can you post comments during signal aquisition? For example, while acquiring your signal, you want to post a comment which the temperature reads at "30 seconds" from your relative start time (t=34 sec into recording)
I have the LE package where events, alarms, etc cannot be used. Are there other ways that the user can mark an "event" during recording?

Hey hkim,
If you know how long it will be before you want a message to pop up you can simply include a sequence structure and in the first sequence have a wait time of your desired length and have the message pop up and display in the second sequence frame.
Hope This Helps,

Can not post comment to a comment at FB

When I use iPad ( I bought about 2 months age)as my machine to open Face Book and I can do most of the normal functions as my iphone, but I can write comment to friends' comment but can not post. I can have my "status", "photo" only can not post comment, Why and how to make it work?

Thanks for the info.
Firstly, make sure you are not using the split keyboard. There is a bug in the app which disables the send button. Make sure it is the full keyboard you are using. (Pinch the split keyboard to rejoin it).
If you still have no luck, then use the website, or an alternative app. They are generally better than Facebook's own offering.
Let me know if this works, or if you have any other issues,
Nathan

Add comment error - can't post entries to blog

I helped my daughter create a website with a blog page for a school project. I've used the iWeb inspector to allow comments and images. It worked during an early publish to but the add comment no longer works. A box opens now that reads "This entry no longer exists. The entry may have been moved or deleted." Her project is now due for school and the blog won't work. Any help would be appreciated. I am posting via .Mac.

The error occurs when accessing the site via the web. Site access is fine and all pages but the blog work. I haven't been doing the captial W, but I would think that would just keep me from finding the site - I'll try it though. On the post-publish comment, I've certainly updated the site as it was built. So if I change the website at all and re-publish, it disables commenting? Can I get commenting back or do I have to build the site from scratch? Thanks.

Can't post comments to pages

When anybody (including myself) tries to leave a comment, an error message simply says "Sorry. We are unable to process your request at this time." Is this a Mobileme thing again?

I don't understand why this worked, but it did. Through Apple support, I was instructed to disable the Ariel font in my applications folder. I had to erase all the comments (that were in Ariel) and retype them into the blog (I couldn't copy and paste for some reason). I made sure the ADD COMMENTS line was at the end of the blog, and made sure the box was checked in the inspector function. I then saved all the retyped comments (in a different font) and deleted the original Ariel font comments, published to mobileme, and the post comments function now works. Here are the instructions I followed:
Symptoms
The iWeb 1.1 update adds comment support for blogs and podcasts (MobileMe published sites only). Depending on which font and templates you use, the "Add Comment" link may not function correctly in your published blog entries.
If you experience this issue, instead of an Add Comments link at the bottom of your blog entry, you may see a non-functional link that reads @post or @comment.
Products Affected
iLife, .Mac/iWeb website hosting, MobileMe
Resolution
Update to iWeb 1.1.1 or later and republish any pages which use Arial fonts. If you're not able to update immediately, you can use the following steps:
Open Font Book, located in your Applications folder.
Disable the Arial Family of fonts in your User collection. For more info see Turning off fonts.
In iWeb, create a new blog or podcast to replace the old one.
If you have content in the old blog that you wish to keep, cut and paste it into new entries in the new blog or podcast.
Delete the old blog or podcast from the Site Organizer.
Publish your site.
If you do not create new blogs after disabling the fonts in your user collection, you may see "Missing Font" error messages when you open iWeb.
Note: Mac OS X installs fonts in /Library/Fonts, including Arial fonts. Some software packages install fonts on your computer when you install or first launch an application. Those fonts will typically be installed in ~/Library/Fonts.

Modify/Change the CSR for view page for a POST in a Blog Site.

I am working on CSR to add a button and change the look and feel of like
and comment button for a Blog Site. Currently I am able to achieve
this, and it is functional(Button).
I am using the below (JSLink) code to achieve it.
    (function () {
        var overrideCtx = {};
        overrideCtx.Templates = {};
        overrideCtx.Templates.Fields = { 'Body':{'View': CBody} };
       console.log("Registering CSR");
        SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
    function CBody(ctx) {
        var ret = ctx.CurrentItem.Body + "<b>" +
    "<button onclick='myfunc(ctx);' type='button' >Report Abuse</button>" + "</b><hr/>" ;
        return ret;
Now I should make it look like this.
is there a way that i can append a button after the Comment button of Image 1, after that manipulating css will be easier.
I tried to override like below,
    overrideCtx.Templates.Fields = { 'PostCategory':{'View': CDate} };
    function CDate(ctx) {
        var ret = "<br> <b>" +
    "<button onclick='func(ctx);' type='button' >One More Test</button>" + "</b><hr/>" ;
        return ret;
But for my luck it didn't worked at all.
what field should I override in my case. CSR is under documented for
SharePoint please suggest me which field/Tag/View/Whatever is need to
overridden.

Hi,
The Client Side Rendering(CSR) may not be able to meet your requirement as the “Comment” button is not a field in the Post.aspx page, it just work as a button that when we click
on it, the TextBox “Add a comment” will be focused for waiting user input.
A workaround is that we can just apply JavaScript to this page to add elements you want behind the “Comment” button.
For how to find a specific element in a page and inject HTML on a page, you can take a look at the links below for a quick start:

How come you can't add comments to blog that you create in IWeb unless you have a mobileme account when you can no longer get an account.

I have a site that i'm working on for class and i need to be able to have people comment on my blogs and stiff and they can't because im using FTP because I don't have a mobileme account. WIll this be changing soon that you can all comments to your site using IWeb.

You need to use a commenting system like Disqus or Intense Debate...

Unable to Post Comments on Blogs

Hi Friends,
I'm not able to post my comments on blogs. Is it some authorization issue? I do have a blogger profile.
Regards,
Vimal G

Is it some authorization issue?
Certainly not so. Can you provide the blog where you were not able to post. Also what error message system was popping up??? Ensure that while trying to comment on any blog, you have logged in :-(.
thanks

Can't leave comments on blogs using iPad

I cannot comment on blogs using my iPad. Have tried Safari and Chrome. Found a suggestion to try Opera but it is so slow it won't even load the sites. Any suggestions?

The problem seems to be specific to blogs. I enter the required information in the comment fields, i.e., name, email, website, and comment--then hit the submit button. The site goes through refresh as if processing comment but comment doesn't appear. I have researched online and this appears to be a common problem when using iPads to leave comments on blogs. The only suggested solution has been to use Opera browser but it is extremely slow. Here are some examples of sites:
http://picky-palate.com/2014/06/16/cheesy-mediterranean-bacon-quesadilla/
http://www.recipegirl.com/2014/06/20/watermelon-gin-fizz
also, it doesn't make a difference if the site is mobile responsive.

On ESPN Streak for the cash game,I can't post comments.

They have a comment page where you can post comments and talk with other players.When I try to post a comment it just goes blank

Hi Devon
In general, based on the odd problems cropping up, corruption may exist on your HD.
To check, open Disk Utility in your Applications>Utilities folder. Highlight your HD on the left, then in the First-Aid panel select "verify disk".
Let me know if any errors appear.

Can I post an Iweb blog on a non-.mac server. I.e. Goddady?

When I try to post an I web blog to my Godaddy account the blog does not display. I know the apple materials state that comments and searching options will not work but as far as I can see there is nothing about it not working at all.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Please provide your url. Perhaps you have not uploaded all the required files. Check Safari > Window > Activity to see if something is marked missing.

The window does not open to allow me to tweet or post comments from any site. i could do it before. does it even in safe mode.

on www.designbcb.etsy.com or on www.yarnharlot.ca or any other account, if i press the tweet, facebook or comment buttons a screen flashes then disappears and i am unable to use these options.

SharePoint 2013 Blog Site Comments permissions

Hello,
Have researched this and all articles I can find so far give identical advice.
Blog site (subsite of root SiteCollection) is populated by a manager of the company. He wants everyone to see it (default "Visitors") and leave a Comment (default "Members").
I have customized List permissions for Comments as Visitors, broken inherited perms with parents to be sure the List perms are specific to Visitors of the List, and Visitors -- expectedly -- cannot post a Comment or see other Blog admin links (Add Post,
Manage Comments etc).
When adding everyone to the Members group, then customizing under Advanced Settings so they can only edit their OWN content, the users can naturally post Comments. But as Members, they are still allowed to Manage posts, Comments,
etc. Too many perms.
Visitor perms = insufficient
Customized "Members" perms = too much granted.
Need to constrain perm traits to posting/editing own Comments and nothing more except Read.
Despite List perm customization, and Advanced Settings customization, this Member perm still grants waayyyyyyy too many perms. I simply cannot permit every user to create posts, manage comments, etc.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to customize the permission in the blog site.
It is recommend customize your own permission level for this scenario.
What’s more, to enable users can only edit their own items, we can set the item level permission in the post list advance settings.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason
