Just wanting to ask if anyone is having trouble accessing their Reader at the moment? I try to access it from my dashboard and it keeps saying http://www.wordpress.com is set to private and I need to ask the owner for permission…but it’s from my dashboard and I’m logged in.
So I’m wondering if there is a glitch right now in WP and if so if others have experienced it?
Anyone else having this problem…and if not, have you ever, or do you have any advice as to how to resolve this?
Any help will be most appreciated!
Reblogged this on Year 'Round Thanksgiving Project and commented:
I haven’t had trouble, but this is the second blog I’ve seen about this.
Thanks, that’s interesting and a bit hopeful…it might be a glich that occurs sometimes. It’s very odd…when was the other blog post, today or recently? Oh, and thanks so much for replying!! 🙂
The other blog post was minutes before I got notification of yours. And now I’m getting the same thing 😦 It must be a WordPress glitch
Fingers crossed they fix it soon – again, I so appreciate you responding so quickly…it is a relief in a way to hear it is more widespread – not that I wish difficulties on others but at least it means it’s unlikely to be something stupid I’ve done in my settings inadvertently or something 🙂 …..hopefully it will be resolved in WP soon.
I’m good again. So maybe mine was a sympathy glitch for you. Hope it is corrected soon for you. Good luck
Hi Helen
I cant get into my reader or my stats page they say marked as private by owner and as I am logged in as myself, I need to log in as someone else…..I’m guessing glitch yes!
Ann
Thank You! It does seem like its a glitch others are experiencing…oh well, think I’ll log out and try a bit later. Thanks so much for letting me know….there is some comfort in not being alone with something like this!! 🙂
Seems to be fixed now – I could just get back in……
Someone might have hacked your password
Hopefully not – it seemed to be someting most people were experiencing right at that time, so hopefully just some glitch with WP. 🙂
The forums are full of complaints so I think it is an ongoing issue. Hopefully things will be repaired soon. 😉
Thanks for responding, much appreciated…I was just able to gt back in so I think it’s fixed now… 🙂
[ Sighs ] It happened to me a moment ago. Things appear to be back to normal.
Yes, I can get in now…obviously a WP glitch…
Mine was like that and it just came back about a minute ago. Maybe they’re doing some maintenance on the servers.
Probaby something like that…it was a bit unnerving when it happened though.
just starting happening to me
booo
That’s exactly how I felt about it!! 🙂
now it is working again
glitchy
glitchy
Yes, very well put!! 🙂
I have this same problem two or three times a week .
So it obviously has been happening a bit of late? perhaps they are doing work on the server and that’s what happens when you try to access at that time?
I figured that maybe there was a lot of traffic , people posting a lot . I just do something else . Good night ….
The same happened to me but now its working like its supposed to. 🙂
Yes, I think it was a server glitch of some sort…which is a relief. 🙂
i know they are working on a new dashboard, i dont know if that is the issue or not. you wouldnt be using the test “new” dashboard tho, if you did not click it to try it out. and yes, as someone noted when something like this happens, check the forums. if you dont see questions on it, and info, then ask there too. glad it’s fixed. aloha.
Thanks! The advice is much appreciated and I will check the forums in future if anything similar occurs. 🙂
for what it is worth I just pulled my Reader up with no issues, but I do have another curiosity lol Yahoo wont let me delete anything from Spam or Trash, or Empty either lol. I have like 300 emails sitting in Trash
computers are odd….hope your issue resolves itself quickly…maybe yahoo is doing maintenance too 🙂
LOL actually I tried right after I left my comment and everything is working now 🙂 thanks for your continued encouragement and support on my blog. I hope I return the kindness adequately, 🙂
Glad it’s working now for you too! And you are most welcome for support – I love your blog, so it’s easy to support, and you most certainly return the favour my friend!! 🙂
Thought it was just my server…glad to know others are having the same problems…sorry
No need to apologise…I think we all felt the same way, if we weren’t alone then it was a WP thing. 🙂
Yup, happened to me too. It sucked, so now I am going and catching up.
Yep, I know that feeling!! 🙂
No Helen mine is working fine..just opened reader….n wordpress often goes crazy n hangs
Cool, it seems to be fine now which is good. 🙂
I haven’t had the problem today …. but there’s no telling what WP will do in an hour’s time! Hang in there. I feel the pain …. these reader glitches are AWFUL.
Yes, it did feel very strange. I’m sort of used to my reader freezing sometimes, but being locked out of your own reader does feel very odd, and not particularly nice. 🙂 Still glad to hear it hasn’t vexed you. 🙂
Well, I have been vexed, that’s for sure … but not today, thankfully! Sometimes it just sort of *blanks* on me. So I go through the rigamarole of deleting history and clearing out the caches .. etc. … oh well. Can’t complain, right? o.O
My reader isn’t working well either, and wordpress keeps logging me off! Grrr…
They must be doing some maintenance or something today…lots of odd things happening it seems. Hope it settles for you soon! 🙂
I hope it gets resolved soon! And I hope your reader behaves for you too! 😉
Thanks!! 🙂 It seems to have frozen so I’m going to take that as a sign to log off and go and watch some DVDs… 🙂
Mine keeps freezing too…and I should just go to bed! Good night! 🙂
I certainly hope tomorrow isn’t crap on WordPress like today was. I had everything from double comments to missing responses to no reader to UGGGGHHH. In some ways I think i was lucky to be away from the computer!
Wow, sounds like there were problems all over…fingers crossed its back to normal tomorrow! 🙂
I hope so but it is good for a laugh:) all of us bitching about our mostly free services not functioning proper:)
That’s true… think that it’s just that it’s a bit scary when something like that happens because it’s so mysterious…. 🙂
And I’m just impatient;)
LOL, me too..but mainly I’m such a luddite that when computer things go wrong I get all panicky and assume the worst, LOL.. 🙂
Lol me too!
Never seen this. Hope it’s alright now.
Seems to be, but some have said they’ve experienced this on and off all week so I guess we’ll wait and see. 🙂
Hmm… will look out for it.
Not sure why you’re just seeing it recently Helen. Happens to me frequently – that or it doesn’t show any feeds. I guess I just choose to go through my reader at the worst possible chance since some people have never seen it, LOL.
Wow…perhaps I’ve been lucky up till now…still if it happens on and off to all of us at least it doesn’t mean it’s someting any one individual has done…I initially thought I’d done something in my dashboard or something that had set it off!! 🙂
Yes, reader was playing up on me too.
WP can be mysterious sometimes. 🙂
I’ve just been having problems liking posts in the reader. After the page refreshes, the likes disappear. Like I never “liked” them…..
I’ve had that happen too, or they just don’t take at all…very strange…sometimes the like button doesn’t load so I put a ‘like’ in the comment. 🙂
I’ve been having trouble with wordpress since last week. Weird things like slow loads of wordpress sites, reader not loading properly, and now my “likes” are not registering properly. So, I click on the Like button but nothing happens. I’ve also changed browsers and disabled extensions. Maybe they’re going through an upgrade.
I think someone mentioned they were doing a new dashboard design so maybe that’s it. Hopefully it all settles soon. 🙂
