Sometimes the reblog options doesn’t work properly… It reblogs, but doesn’t changes the button to “reblogged” neither comment that the reblog was done. Can you please fix this problem? It’s too frequent… I reblog imensely and having this problem is really annoying.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,

Sorry for the trouble! Can you please give me a link to a post that you reblogged where this happened? I can take a closer look to see what’s going on there.

I did not found a duplicate post looking rapidly over my blog, but I will report here the next time it occurs.

It happens when you click the Reblog button on the reader and the blog itself disables Reblogging.

No… I’m talking about clicking in the top black menu, not on the reader.

Ah, I’ve had that problem too in Chrome. Sometimes it takes several repetitions to get reblogging to work. It seems to work easier if you click in the Reblog square, highlight all the text, and then click Reblog.

It happened now. The first link is the first time I clicked “reblog”. The reblog happened, but the loading continued and the button don’t changed. Then I reloaded the page, clicked again and then the reblog worked, creating the second post.

Thanks for letting me know! I’m investigating this, but I haven’t been able to reproduce the problem you described. A little more information about your setup might help:

Do you have any add-ons/extensions installed in Firefox? Here’s more about finding your add-ons in Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/disable-or-remove-add-ons

Hello, can you help me with an issue I have regarding my blog? I reblogged my own post in error, now I can’t get rid of it and I don’t want it to be the first thing the reader sees!
Thanks

Hi sashamackie, I see that the volunteer raincoaster helped you with this over here:

If you have any other questions about that, can you please post them as a reply in that thread? Since your question is different from the original question in this thread, that’ll help us keep the questions and answers straight. :)

It doesn’t happen every time.
I have no extensions and the theme is the default. You want that I say which plugins I have?

No that’s ok. Thanks for letting me know about the extensions.

I am checking with my team so we can investigate this a bit more. Since it’s hard to reproduce the problem, we may not have a solution for it right away. If you notice any other details that might contribute to the problem (for example, if it always happens when you reblog posts from a particular site) please let me know. :)

Hi there,

Our team hasn’t been able to reproduce the problem you’re having with reblogs, so we’re not sure yet what’s going wrong. Does the same problem happen if you use a different browser? You can download the latest versions of popular browsers to try them here: http://browsehappy.com/
