So I was emailing with Miss Amanda Madden {isn’t her name fun to say} and she told me I was a “no-reply” blogger. What?! How rude of me! She said that even if I leave my email address in a comment, you cannot reply to me by email.
Well, I am not that kind of girl, but I had no clue how to fix this! I found LOTS of tutorials on how to fix the problem, but they all said to edit your blogger profile. I repeatedly went to my blogger dashboard, but when I edited my profile, my screens looked nothing like the tutorials! I didn’t even have the same options!
Then I discovered the problem. I use my google+ profile…I was sold on the whole google+ idea, but I really do not even have the first clue what to do with it. How was I to get rid of this!!
I toyed around with my dasboard and here’s what I found.
When you use google+, there is no option to fix account settings in blogger.
After I had the problem fixed, I returned to the dashboard and switched back to google+. It makes me feel more at one with the tech world I guess! Now sweet bloggers like Amanda can email me when they comment on my comments! Thank you Amanda! and fyi-If you do not use google+ as your blog profile, just do the last 2 steps!
Happy Sunday. New Michaels coupon came out. 25% off entire purchase! plus my teacher discount! that’s 40%! Off to get 3 flat canvases for a Monday Made it! Remember to download the Michaels app and all your coupons are right on your phone! I do it for Hobby Lobby too
Great job fixing that! I would have given up along time ago!!

I can't tell you how may tutorials I have looked at to fix this problem over the last week! None of them understood the problem!! I was too afraid of Google+ and their dire warnings to try and change back my profile! Thank you soooo much! Finally, someone who understood the problem and had an easy fix! You are fantastic, Rachel.I am off to change it now!
ReplyDeleteI was scared to change from Google+ too! They really get in your head! haha! Glad it worked!
DeleteRachel
ACK! Make it stop! I've linked to this post from my blog. http://thecrookedstamper.blogspot.com/2012/05/are-you-no-reply-blogger.html
ReplyDelete*shakes fist at Google*
Thank you so much! I'm trying for ages to get this fixed. Thank you, thank you!
ReplyDeleteI tried this, but I am still a no reply blogger :( please mail me at ncdiamante@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI've also tried this, and it looks like I'm still a no reply blogger, too. Any ideas?
DeleteI found you while trying to help one of my readers fix her problem. What do you think will happen when (as they keep threatening) the "old blogger interface" goes away?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!!! I was finally able to fix this! Now, if I could just figure out why my "reply" link won't work on my comments!
ReplyDeleteHallelujah, praise the LORD!!! I have been trying to fix that for months!!!!! Everyone just kept saying "Go to your dashboard and edit file, yada, yada, yada" There was NO edit file on my dashboard!!!! It was so frustrating and I spent freaking hours on that dashboard looking for it. Thank you SO MUCH!!!!
ReplyDeleteJaye @ Just Tryin' to Make Cents of it All
Thank you so much! I just followed these steps. Can you confirm for me that I am no longer a no-reply blogger? Just in case. my email is theconsignerdesigner@gmail.com or jenniferlossing@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for your your help!!
Thank you so much for this! I'd been getting some e-mails from people telling me that I was a no-reply blogger and I just couldn't believe it - I hate no-reply bloggers! tee hee! I had no idea my profile was reset with the switch over to the new profile! I'm sharing this tutorial on my facebook page - it's awesome!
ReplyDeleteJo-Anna
And I found it at A Pretty Life in the Suburbs fb page - this has been a godsend!! thank you!
ReplyDeleteRachel, thank you so much for posting this tutorial….I have spent HOURS trying to fix that problem and thanks to you, I'm all set!
ReplyDeleteIt won't let me go back...I mean, I revert briefly, but when I attempt to modify profile settings, it switches back to Google+. /faux sob ...laying my problems shamelessly at your feet. SORRY!
ReplyDeleteI found this post through google because u was searching for a solution to the same problem. I did what u said and then changed back to google+ and I'm still a no reply blogger! Am I going to have to unlink it permanently till they fix it ?
ReplyDeleteim having the exact same problem! i've checked all my settings and still im listed as no reply! so frustrated!!!
DeleteOh yeah here's my email do u can respond! Lol. Erinsworld09@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteThank you SO much for this post! I just recently moved to Blogger from Wordpress and couldn't figure out why I was a "no reply blogger"...the problem was Google+! Thank you so so much for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteGreat! Glad I helped someone!,
DeleteThis is my problem for since I created my Blogger account. I tried the steps above, but I'm still a noreply@blogger. :(
ReplyDeleteJust found out this morning that I had been converted to a no-reply and immediately thought it must be Google+'s fault. Thank you for this quick fix! I'm off to see if it works.
ReplyDeleteI cracked up at your first line, as I call my daughter's teacher by her entire name, Sharon Sheehan, because it is way too much fun to say too. :)
New to your blog, and appreciate your information. I have changed mine..Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteI need some help! I am able to receive mail so I am not a no-reply blogger, but I am listed as one on my blog list...why? How do I fix this?
ReplyDeleteThanks!

Thanks for the tip! I haven't upgraded to Google+ and my profile shows my email is showing.
ReplyDeleteDebbie :)
I tried changing by going back to my blogger account...but I just read on the google+ help site that they delete your blogger account after 30 days...so I would have to create a whole new account to be able to not be a "no-reply blogger" is there another way to find out from google how to do this?
ReplyDeletebriblakney@gmail.com
Thank you for this!! Worked perfectly!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! How easy was that??!! Very clever :)
ReplyDeleteI am so grateful you had this post!! I never knew I was in the same boat :) I got a lovely post from a blog owner I had commented on and she referred me to this post!! I am all fixed, thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU! I just shared this post on my blog. It helped me so much.

Thank you so much, I have spent soo much time trying to fix my noreply problem.
ReplyDeleteI had a terrible time getting back to my Blogger profile, but I did it awhile back. Just today I was notified from Sylvia at http://www.sweetpeasylvie.com/ that I was a no-reply blogger! What??? I had no idea! Since reverting back to Blogger, I hadn't checked any of the settings, so now it's fixed. But because of Sylvia's nice email, I am now a new follower here. =0)

ReplyDeletei have spent two days looking into this-ugggh!!! really, why doesn't blogger or g+ address this issue anywhere in their help page??? hello, people - that's what a help page is for - current issues with your site... ok, i'm off my soapbox now.
ReplyDeletethat said, thank you, thank you, thank you! {wish i had found your post earlier} ;}
Thank you, I have come over from Natas Nest where she highlighted this problem. Have now reverted back to the blogger profile from Google+. I hope you don't mind if I link your post on to my blog for other bloggers to click through to you. Thanks again. :-)
