Having the same issues. Off to look for a better solution.

Well, turns out if I put a different URL in the “website” field, the comment will go through. (Fortunately, I have a URL that redirects to my main site.) But now the question is, what is up with my URL that it causes my comments to be blocked, or whatever?

Yep. Though, amusingly, my comment is being held for moderation.

It’s not just her blog, though. I can comment just fine on my own site, and the others I run.

Oh well. I guess I just won’t comment on blogs anymore.

And I just tested on a blog that has moderation, and it gave me the message that the comment was awaiting moderation.

I just tested it with a friend’s blog, and no comment showed up anywhere. Not in her spam or in pending comments. Nowhere.

And after I post the comment, the URL will be a link to that comment, which isn’t actually there.

Like this:

https://URL.com/2011/10/post/comment-page-1/#comment-37084

Because these are all blogs I’ve commented on before. And I’ve asked the owners. They don’t know.
