Blogger Comments Issue

About a month ago, Blogger stopped sending comment emails which was pretty much like... the worst thing ever.  I started using Disqus in the interim, but I won't lie.. I didn't love it.  I missed the emails coming directly to me and I felt like responding through emails was much more personal and encouraged more interaction.

Recently, I came across directions for how to fix it... and I tried it...
AND IT WORKED!!!

Praise sweet baby Jesus!
and Bri for sharing.

Here's what you do:
1.  From the main blogger page, click on Settings in the left menu.
2.  Click on Email when the level expands.
3.  In the Comment Notification Email box, delete whatever email address is there.
4.  CLICK SAVE in the top right corner.
5.  In the Comment Notification Email box, type in whatever email address you'd like to receive comments at.
5.  Click Save in the top right corner.

If you're like me, you'll want to test it by putting a comment on one of your posts, but I had zero issues and the email came in right away, just like it used to.  There was a note about some comments going to spam folders, so be aware of that.

But can we get a FUCK YAAASSSSS for this issue being moderately resolved?

  1. I am so damn happy I can get comments this way again. A little annoyed I can't transfer my Disqus comments but whatever.
