Lost Followers? Oh No, You Didn't!

It came to my attention that I stopped following some of my dear blogs! I checked and found I was off everyone's follow list!

So I checked into things and I found this info!

I solved it by going into my Dashboard. On my follow list. I clicked Manage, and found I was "Anonymous" on all the blogs! I changed all of them to "Public". Now I am back!

So you didn't lose your followers. They are just tinkering with things at blogger.

I sometimes think there are little gremlins running all over blogger, just to mess things up a bit and keep us on our toes. LOL!

Thanks for letting us know, Genie! :)

Thanks for the info. I lost 4 followers today - one was you for awhile. It so happened that I changed my blog template today and was changing things all day. I thought I had done something to lose people. I'm not going insane after all. :o)

Thanks for the heads up chickie!

Damn Blogger! :) You would think they would put a message up for all to see rather than make us hunt for the info. It caused a lot of unease in a lot of people. Sheesh! If you know anything about me, know I'm with you all thick or thin, no matter what the little boxes say. :)

Thank you for sharing this info. I have pondered this tool a bit. Can you tell me... I have noticed that on many blogs, their profile page lists all the folks they follow. To me that makes that page very 'busy'. You say that you have folks you follow but they are not listed on your profile page, is this because you chose 'public'?

Genie Sea said...

Rebecca - Who would run away from you? Preposterous!

Tammie Lee - I have no idea why the blogs I am following don't show up on my profile. I will investigate :)
