We keep getting the message that our Open ID can’t be verified. this happened a while back and a couple of different tech people helped us out. We tried clearing our cache as we were instructed to do last time, but it still doesn’t work. Everything in our settings appears to be okay, so we’re not sure why this is happening again. Please help. I’m not very tech savvy and am lost.

The blogspot.com software is not recognizing your WordPress.COM identity. This is a very common issue.

The bottom line is that the blogspot software expects your blog to be the same as your username ie. it expects your username to be linked to http://dezizworld.wordpress.com.

When that isn’t the case the software will not allow you to link to any other URL in a comment. So the blogspot.com bloggers have to change their settings for comments for you to be able to comment as dezizworld and link that username to http://dezizworld.com/.

PLEASE HELP!!! Thank you for your input timethief, but this was not helpful at all. Firstly I’m not tech smart enough to understand your post, and the captcha stuff is just something I’ve gotten used too. I have already cleared my browsers cookies and entire history to no avail and this is happening on all browsers I have tried (google,firefox,microsoft edge). I have been successfully using http://dezizworld.com as an open id to comment on blogger blogs for most of a year with only one hiccup which was solved a little while back by the two gentlemen who helped me before. So if someone could please help me get this sorted I would definitely appreciate it. I follow a lot of blogger blogs that I would like to comment on again.

When I leave a comment on a blogger post, my picture does not come up all the time. Also I get information back from the Blogger that I am a “no reply blogger”

What does this mean?

Do you know how to follow someone who is using blogspot?

I use Bloglovin, and also sign up with my email address.

My Gravitar used to show in the reply, now it is a symbol. I usually switch over to my old blogger account with gmail and it takes. Just wondering if there is a setting I need to do to get my picture back on my responses.

Apparantly my post has been hijacked by nonsense, so I will be making a new request. Please don’t post these questions on my new thread. Start your own.

I am not sure what you are talking about. Someone sent me an email and I thought I was responding. Excuse my dust! Nasty today aren’t you.

Hi folks, it looks like this thread got off topic. I’ll try to address those questions then close this out so I can help @dezizword in their new thread.

@lvquilter Blogspot blogs typically use their own avatar system rather than Gravatar. You may be able to double check by opening your current avatar image in a new tab and noticing whether says “gravatar” in the address. If it does, please open a new thread with us here and we’ll take a look.

@aspiringbluecat you can add them here:
https://wordpress.com/following/edit

Click Follow Site, paste their site address, then click the follow link again. If you need more help, please open a new thread.
