Comments not working on blog

I have several people tell me that they can't post comment on my blog. When will iweb figure out all its kinks? Frustrating!

Problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these discussions. As an alternative, you could hyperlink from your iWeb site to a free web-based blogging service such as Posterous. Not only can you receive email alerts, but you can optionally post your blog entries (including images) via email too — as well as via their web interface. And unlike iWeb's mostly annual upgrades, the guys at Posterous constantly add new features posted (appropriately) via their own _Posterous Blog_. There's also a way to link to an external site (such as a blog) from iWeb's navigation bar.

Blog post comments not working

Hi there,
I have a couple of sites, both set up with a blog:
http://cyberworkshop.co.nz/blog/video-blog
http://www.sjorakei.school.nz/blog/lorem_ipsum_dolor_3
For some reason when you add a comment to either blog post this message appears:
ERROR: An error occurred. Image verification failed. If you believe this is incorrect, please contact your system administrator or go back and re-submit the form.
I definitely had comments working on the School site at one point and I cant figure out how to correct this.
Any pointers on how to fix this would be most appreciated.
Thanks, Ben

Hi Ben,
For the first site, it looks like captcha is commented out on the Blog Post Detail layout: http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Florin/2013-10-20_1259.png
On the second site, you also had a problem in the javascript on the blog post detail layout.
I've corrected the Javascript now, and you get an error message pop-up when trying to submit a comment without filling in the captcha.
Thanks,
Florin

Comments Not Working on Website - published to non-.mac server

Hi there. I've read on a few non-apple sites of users having trouble with Comments and some other functions of their websites, built in iWeb, not working when they publish to a non-.mac server. I've built my website in iWeb, published via CyberDuck to a BlueHost server -- but now users can not post comments on my blog.
Has anyone found a way to fix this issue??
It seems incredibly pointless to even now have my own domain. I'm super close to giving up on iWeb all together because of this ridiculous issue.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, blog comments are a MobileMe only feature along with the hit counter etc.
You have to publish to MobileMe if you want these features.
There are workarounds however. If you want to continue to use an iWeb blog, then you can use a third party comments feature. Take a look here http://www.intensedebate.com. It is free to set up on the site and all you then do is copy and paste the code into an html snippet on the page you want comments to appear in whatever format you want them.
Your other option is to ditch iWeb and if it is just a blog you want, use something like http://www.wordpress.com. This is free and you don't need a domain name and the blog is published on WordPress servers.
Your other option for a blog is http://www.posterous.com.
The iWeb blog system is not that good, so you might look into changing if a blog is what you want rather than a website.

Acrobat XI Pro "add text comment" not working

In Acrobat, my "Add Text Comment" comment feature no longer works. I am using Acrobat XI Pro on Win7.
The property "Locked" vs Make Property Default fix on these forums did not work for me.
When I click on a document to add a text comment,
1. Acrobat creates a small square (uneditable)
2. Acrobat adds a comment to the comments list
I am unable to type any text, nor edit the box, nor change the box's size, nor see the properties.
Any thoughts are appreciated as to how to fix this feature.
Michael

Hi cpa-michael,
If this issue appears in any PDF that you try to add comments to, please repair the Acrobat installation by choosing Help > Repair Acrobat Installation.
If the issue appears only in one PDF file, that PDF may be damaged and you can try Saving As to repair the document, or you can try to "refry" the PDF by printing to PDF from within Acrobat.
Best,
Sara

Regex header comments not working properly

We are trying to use regex to get rid of pictures that are being attached by automated messages being sent to our help desk. We found that the regex we added
On\s.*(\r?\n)?.*wrote:\s?\r?\n|-- |Code42
,along with the default regex
On\s.*(\r?\n)?.*wrote:\s?\r?\n
changed nothing.
The default has definitely worked before and the additions we made worked in a controlled environment. Is there something we don't know about or is this functionality not working at the moment?
Thanks.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

I am seeing the same behavior. If I delete the comment it continues to show up.
However if I put in a new comment without the [ char the search behaves correctly. I can even put in a single space and that will cause the search to fail.
So unless I'm totally missing something I have to say this is a bug.
Sorry I don't have a solution.

I just got really, really nasty with Apple Care (who wanted to charge me; I wasn't haven't it) and mobileme support.
The problem is on their end. They have finally identified the problem, and are trying to fix it. They said not to change any settings on the iweb site. They said they should have the problem fixed within 24 hours.
For right now, I've embedded a nabble mini-forum on new posts so that people can comment.

Iweb comments not working

I've posted student work to a blog page. Now I want students to be able to comment on each other's work, but when we click comment we get an error message. I did go in to each post and click on allow comments in the inspector, but that has not helped. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Do you have a domain name for your site? If so then do as the document says andI make sure you're running the latest update for iWeb, iWeb 2.0.4 . That should shake itself out. Also do a Publish All to MobileMe.
I don't have a blog page so don't know much more than what the Apple doc says.

Checking for new comments not working

A little while back I wrote in about how to know when people had written comments on my blog entries. The reply was helpful, in telling me that iWeb puts a red label on the app icon in the dock when you have unread comments; just like MAIL does. HOWEVER, when you open the app, and click on File>Check for new comments, nothing happens - I've tried it on all three levels, the archives, the entries, and main page, AND the site, but nothing shows up. Any ideas what to do next? Using latest iWeb version, too. I know I can use a free blog site and redirect but I'd like not to have to do that if possible. And the other suggestion, writing a script, was a bit daunting time-wise for me when I checked on what that required...
Thanks!

I seem to have gotten my iWeb out of "checking for new comments". I went to File > "publish all to .mac" After it was done publishing all my sites to .mac, I restarted the program, and it finally finished checking for new comments. (It did take a while to finish though) I am not sure why this worked, but it did. I hope this helps.

Comments not working

I'm grading a batch of papers, using the Comments feature. Yesterday I was able to complete 5 papers, no problem. Today, when I highlight text and click Comment, the text is yellowed and the Comments column appears, but there is no attached bubble for adding text. I have tried creating new documents, I have toggled Show/Hide Comments, I've quit and restarted. Nothing is working.
What on earth is going on?

Restarting the computer is something you have to do now and then. I do it at least once a week. When I do that the computer works fine, when I don't I never know what problem I'll run in to. It is up to you to do the maintenance on your computer. Restarting is one maintenance task.

BDC for MM02 Internal comments - Not working

I have created a BDC that inputs internal comments using MM02. It moves the data in okay in the BDC. The data is there the way it was formated. Several lines of comments added. But after it saves the data - it takes all of the lines and appends them into one and fills up the lines. For example - enter: line 1, then enter line: 2. Instead of having 2 lines showing 1 on the first and 2 on the second - I get 1 lines howing both: 2.
Any ideas?

Check this. I think you may like it. This program excepts the material number and changes the internal comment text.   I am forcing two lines, when I check after executing this program, the text is there in two lines. Please see if you can use the BAPI instead of BDC.

Comments on the blog of iweb '06 does not work

When someone tries to leave a comment on my blog on my iweb website, it seems to not allow people to do so. What could the problem possibly be?

If you still have problems with comments on your iWeb blog, you could hyperlink from your iWeb site to a web-based blog. For example, the free Posterous is as simple as blogging gets — you can post a blog entry via email or from a web browser:
...And since your blog would no longer be stored on your Mac, you'll avoid the future possibility of having to do a long and slow +Publish All+.
If you went with a new blogging system, you could perhaps use an archiving app such as iterasi to preserve your current blog for posterity before removing it from iWeb.

Comment is not working properly when using list values - multiple rows

Hi
I am trying to send comments in drop down menu but it is not working.
I have a list field with the following values ( "Not Started";"In Progress";"Completed")
the default value should be "Not Started" but if I select "In Progress" at the top and click save, I get it in all the rows.
can't seem to figure out why is not working.
=IF($P22="Not Started";EVCOM($P22;$E$2;$M22;Parameter!$C$20;$E$5;"SCHED";Parameter!$C$23;Parameter!$C$25;$E$6;$E$8;$E$10;$E$11;$E$12);IF($P22="In Progress";EVCOM($P22;$E$2;$M22;Parameter!$C$20;$E$5;"SCHED";Parameter!$C$23;Parameter!$C$25;$E$6;$E$8;$E$10;$E$11;$E$12);IF($P22="Completed";EVCOM($P22;$E$2;$M22;Parameter!$C$20;$E$5;"SCHED";Parameter!$C$23;Parameter!$C$25;$E$6;$E$8;$E$10;$E$11;$E$12);"Not Started")))
I have tried to use plain EVCOM function but the result is same.
thanks

ATTN APPLE GUYS iWeb comments link not working on published photos site

When you publish a photo site (theme black) to mobileme and check the allow comments check box the link does not work on the published site. You cannot add comments.

This is a users help forum and people from Apple do not look at these pages. If you have problems, then you need to contact Apple directly and let them know.
Lots of others here have had problems with comments not being allowed on blogs and it is not just one theme either, it seems to be across the board. There are lots of threads about it here and I believe some have contacted Apple and they say they are working on fixing it. It is to do with the transition from .Mac to MMe.

Automator not working properly while setting comments and moving files to folders, how to proceed?

So, this is my workflow, i've converted it into a folder action and applied it to a folder called "Automator" in my desktop:
i've turned "show this action when the workflow runs" so I can see what is going wrong
here's what I get (each action happens to have a problem to it)
1) Get specified finder items
2/3) Filter / find finder items
those are there just to work for this simple porpouse: identify that i've dropped a pdf file in the "Automator" folder
I move the PDF
The workflows starts
4) Ask for a text
this would be a prompt for me to add a comment to go to the "Spotlight Comment" section when I click on "get info"
put instead I get this...
that's the directiory that the file is in!
so I type some random text that would go to the spotlight comment section
then click OK
5) Set Spotlight Comments for Finder Items
that's the actual action, it should have the text that i've inputted in the last step, but instead it has this:
(Text is the variable that i've setted up to be shown on the ask for text and set spotlight comment...)
so, I have to manually input the comments I want to be on the file
and click continue
6) Label Finder Items
That's the action where i'm suppose to choose the label color, so I do that and click continue
this should work, but the file doesn't change label at all
nothing happens.
7) Move Finder Items
It should move to the "untitled folder", but again, it doesn't.
and that's it.
It's a PDF file, but it's not recognized by the system as a PDF.
When it is recognized, if I move more than one PDF file, the workflow works for just one PDF, instead of working for all of them!
I would reeeeally appreciate any help
the whole point in this was for me not to buy Hazel, but I think I will end up buying it :/
thanks for any help anyone can give me!

hey red_menace, thanks veeeery much for your support, I really appreciate it
as you can notice, i'm new to the automator, i'm actually new to the whole software thing, I have no idea what I'm doing so I really appreciated your help, changed my life and made my day
BUT, it didn't work...
well, it did, partially
I still don't get any comments on the "Spotlight comments" area and when I convert the workflow to a folder action, it does not recognize the file!
here's my workflow:
here's what I did, step by step:
first I added find finder's items, that worked really well, but it labeled all the finders files that were in the folder AND subfolders (the ones that were suppose to already be labeled right)
then I removed the find finder's items and tried, worked well, but I hadn't checked the "ignore the input", so the comments weren't working
so then I ignored the input on the actions that didn't require an iput, so my workflow is the same as yours now… and It's not working.
at first it worked for only 1 pdf, but no comments
then it worked for 50% of the pdfs, with comments
then it stopped working at all.
added the find finders items
worked while testing with one
saved
tried with 7 at the same time
worked… but didn't get any spotlight comments
went back on automator
checked "show this action when the workflow runs" for the spotlight comments action
added the variable as an answer on the "ask for text"
the variable ran as expected, I had the same input I've inputed as an answer for the "ask for text" on the "spotlight comments" action, label went okay and stuff, but i did not get any spotlight comment on the spotlight comment section!!
went back on automator and checked out the "append to existing comments" on "set spotlight comments for finder items"
and still didn't get any comments on the files!
btw, I went back on the automator and removed the find finder items
then tried again with only one file, dropping it in the application. it worked, but I still didn't get any spotlight comments!!
I also tried deleting the ask for text and tried just
but it did not work
I also converted the workflow that working for all expect the comments to a folder action, and it DID NOT recognize the pdf I dropped in the folder, what do I do?!
