Posts stuck in moderation (DPS blog)

[dcclark]

Hello -- I have a strange problem that I haven't encountered here before, and I don't know where else to ask -- so I posted here.

I posted a comment on this recent article on the DPS blog about 9 hours ago. The comment is listed for me as "awaiting moderation" -- and if I log out, sure enough, it doesn't show up. So, I posted a test comment (just after it) which appeared. Then I tried posting my comment again (several hours later) -- again, stuck in moderation.

My two comments which are stuck in moderation both have two links in them (to my own posts, as examples relevant to the topic). Could these be causing the comments to be stuck in moderation? I've never seen moderation on my comments before, and clearly they're not actually being moderated.

I think the blog uses Wordpress as it blog platform. You can set it to push certain comments to moderation based on certain parameters, such as certain words or the number of links. This is probably what happened to your post due to the links. It is then either waiting to be moderated or was rejected for some reason,

They were all just magically accepted. Thanks... somebody!
