Ok, that could be part of it too, but mostly it’s because I’m a dork.
My apologies in advance for being a dork

Dork. 😉
And I like that apparently the wiener-mobile is cause for metal-hands.
LOL! As I said: Ned = (metal-hands) Dork 😉
OMG…Ned & The Wienermobile! Can the Idado Spud-Mobile be far behind? *me, planning to stay tuned for yet more dorky pictures*
Life is good.
LOL! I’ve got a lifetime of dorkness captured in photos 🙂
I’m rendered speechless by that pic! Just speechless. Shut the front door..that’s a funny pic!
Those kinds of opportunities don’t come often; you have to “relish” them…
Weinerschnitzelin’, dude.
I’ve got that tattooed on my… uh… back.
And I’m sure you enjoy it immensely when Mrs Ned gives you a nice, relaxing tattoo-rub. 😉
I’d be doing the same thing if I saw the Wienermobile!
THAT’S what I’m talkin’ ’bout!
Ok, ignore my comment on the butt insurance post, the mystery has been solved. I’m just glad neither of us are losing our minds.
Can you share what did you have to do to make your post appear in the tag reader? My posts haven’t been showing up there for as long as I remember.
No problem. And I have seen your posts there, but only on occasion — which is why I follow you. Someone had suggested to me that I need to put in as many keyword tags as possible before posting, so that it will reach more venues. When I realized my posts weren’t appearing anymore, I contacted the WordPress questions forum. That’s when Timethief explained that if you tag more than 15 categories, WordPress will automatically disallow the post to go anywhere other than to your followers and your blog. This is done to keep people from blanketing every category, which makes sense. I had started listing keywords and averaging about 18 to 20 tags, which is when my posts stopped going to the general board. As long as you keep it to less than 15 tags, you should be good. I’m now limiting myself to 8 at the most. Kind of like my sexual positions once I entered my mid 40s…
Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I thought there is a certain setting you were supposed to enable to appear in the tag reader, but it doesn’t look as though that was the problem.
I know that WP asks people to limit the number of tags on the post, and I actually do limit the number of tags I use to 10 or fewer. I’ve been doing that for months with no visible (in tag reader) results. I’ve left the question in the forum, and I don’t think I ever got the answer.
Sorry that didn’t help. I’m not a techno person, so just finding the “help” page was a real accomplishment for me. But there were several other things listed to try in addition to reducing tags. If nothing else, go to timethief’s blog. It’s all about blogging and there’s a whole section on this subject — and she answers questions promptly. She is the one who replied to my question in the forum. Good Luck!
Thank you, I’ll try that.
Nope, no brain loss for us. At least, nothing noticeable to anyone other than ourselves. So far.
Thank goodness!! I thought maybe I dreamed that first post about J-Lo’s butt.
Yes, that would be a nightmare 😉
Badge of honour…
Lol! Or duct tape of shame 🙂
I’ll say to you what many have said to me when I comment, “I’m not losing my mind.”
True, cause you lost it long ago.
Good point — although I’m not sure if I lost it or willingly gave it up.
Oh, that explains it. I’m getting caught up.
🙂
Once you tagged your posts did you re-publish them? Or did the tagging do the trick?
I had to re-publish them, which kind of messed up my site, but it’ll eventually work out. In the meantime, everyone who visits will just think I have Alzheimer’s…
The reason I asked is because WP has a new tag WPlongreads. I know some bloggers who have long posts that are worth reading so I was sort of hoping that your error and the tagging may have been helpful in the end but apparently not, you’re just forgetful.
Thanks so much for answering my question.
Happy Monday!
Haha! Thanks — you to 🙂
