Why is it that I post two writes - my common practice - and don't begin to see any likes for up to 2 weeks.&nbsp;&nbsp;Do writes stay in Limbo?
Yesterday and today I see comments on "Purpose" which I posted 2 weeks ago. What's going on? I have 2 more in the pipeline - where are they? When will anyone see them?
Is this just my writes, or does everyone encounter the same delay?
And how soon will you see THIS one?&nbsp;&nbsp;Posted 5/21.

I&#8217;ve noticed that sometimes when a poem is posted it doesn&#8217;t show up on the feeds of other&#8217;s pages. You see the poem in the &#8220;latest&#8221; section or when you go to someone&#8217;s page directly, but otherwise no one sees it and it gets very little views. Sometimes hours later it may appear on other&#8217;s feeds or sometimes not at all. Most frustrating of all to me is that a few years ago a change was made and I noticed I started seeing the same people over and over on my homepage, but not others. I figured they simply weren&#8217;t posting. But when I go to their pages, they are and have been for years! They just no longer show on my feed despite my following them.

I rarely get notifications of comments or likes,have to keep checking the poem itself, plus alot of poems by people I follow are not appearing in the stream or poem stream, in fact this poem is not in my stream ,found it in latest.bad gateway 502 not happened for a few days but alot of other bugs have replaced it, that's what I'm experiencing anyway

kim-johanna-baker

Lori, you have not been in my stream and I never ever get any notifications, I have to check the poem. I am sorry your poems are not being seen. I will go to your page ... It's frustrating I know

I can't even get to people's pages by typing in the search bar unless I see the poems in the stream or poems, I have no front page.

What Richard said it's bizarre to say the least.

michael-murphy

Not just you.  I have to actively search the people I follow.  I think I've been on here for eight years and never had a poem on the front page. Fortunately I'm not writing for anything other than my own sanity.  Otherwise I'd go insane.

I notice that new writing appears practically every minute, so things will get buried fast.
Default sorting of website home page is by popularity, though that metric is fickle by nature.  If you sort it &#8220;latest&#8221; (or is it called &#8220;recent&#8221;?),  you&#8217;ll see most recently posted pieces (reverse chronological order).  I find mine don&#8217;t accumulate views very quickly but that&#8217;s fine.  Follower count plus how many they each follow is probably part of the metric, too (How quickly _your latest might get buried in _their feed).

The we I read here has out grown HP, but I have found not setting so provocative to poetic experiment, 
I have some serverspace, if any body has current era webmaster chops, message me and I'll help as much as I may, but two more days and I become only a visitor, with a thousand hook trot line.

I guess it has to do with the traffic, mine takes several months but it's nothing new to me, even in my daily life, I tend to be the brain behind most projects, but I am never recognize however keep up the good work, it will speak someday.

The invisible poem's, floating around, one day they will be found.

Hello Lori - I received your question today, May 25.  Maybe the delay was temporary. Best Wishes :-))

bonita-costello

I publish a lot less than I used to, and I barely get comments at all. I always see the same writers and the same poems!  Maybe our followings are working on Alpha Rhythms or something.

HI Lori. I was having the same problem, and more, for the last two years. I messaged Elliot often. A few days ago I received a message from him saying all was fixed. Sure enough he fixed it. Keep writing to him telling him your problems. Good luck.

Same here I'm afraid, not that we write to appraised but it's nice to touch a cord with someone.
