IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COMMENTING:


Hi Everyone!  Hope you are all well and having a great week so far.  


First, I want to say what a great job you all are doing on reading, commenting and the insight you've given in the comments is top notch!  I'm blown away!  I've learned so much from what you have written and we haven't even gotten to the first chapter yet.  Lots to think about.  Isn't this an awesome way to study together? 

Oh, and feel free to comment to each other on what they write.  Say hi to your neighbor!




Okay, now about the commenting......


I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused some of you.  I know it's been a little bit of a pain but thanks for sticking with it and with us while we work out the kinks.   I chose this blog site because I'm familiar with it and it's free and relatively easy to use but now I guess it's only easy to use if you're used to it.  Sorry that I took that for granted.  


A few of you have said either in comments here or in emails/private messages that you've lost comments.  I think the comments are actually all still here.  So, before you drive to my house and say "Show me my comment smarty pants!" - let me tell you this......


At the moment, there are now 3 separate posts.  The original one named "Ruth: Introduction and Getting Started", "Ruth: Week 1" and now this one on "IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COMMENTING".  (Don't yell at me just yet - I know you know this already.  ha ha!)  

Here's where it gets confusing...... All three posts sort of look like they run together as one big written thing-a-ma-jig without breaks in between and because the "Comments" link is sooooo incredibly tiny at the bottom of each separate post (and I do mean TINY) - it is often overlooked.  But, if you scroll slowly down - you'll see something that looks like this:  (but without the yellow highlight)

Make sense?  Basically, there is more than one comment section depending on which post you are looking at and you may have commented in a different one than you are looking at.


I really hope that helps!  If it didn't and you are still having trouble or think your comments are being eaten - please, please let me know so I can figure out how to fix it.  

(EDIT)
P.S. ----  I changed the way the page looks for commenting.  Now when you comment - it should take you to a separate page.  I'd like to hear your feedback on whether you like that better or you liked it the original way (it just was a collapsed box at the bottom of each post).  Let me know your thoughts.....
Thanks and have a GREAT Wednesday!
Kim
