I don't know if this is helpful to know but there is a setting on each person's profile where they can choose rather to make their profile public or keep it private. There is also a setting on each person's profile where they can choose which of their blogs, if any, to make visible or list on their profile. Try this. I always access my dashboard by clicking the orange "B" in the upper left hand corner when I'm on my blog. Once at the dashboard, I see some choices beside my pic…and one of those choices is "Edit profile." When I click on "edit profile" I see a bunch of choices…one choice is whether to "share my profile" with others and another choice is whether to "show my blogs that I have or not." Maybe the folks who info you cannot access have the settings on their profile set in such a way that noone can see their profile and/or no one can see the names of their blogs. They may not have it set that way intentionally…but that may be the problem…not sure.
One more thing, make sure you are actually "signed in" to blogger when you are attemtping to view someones profile…just to make sure it isn't that…doubt that's it, though. I don't know if this helps. If it doesn't, it's a mystery to me.

I will click to follow someone and my picture does not appear. So they don't know that I am following them.

I have one inappropriate follower who I don't want following me. I don't know how to block him without making my whole blog private.

I used to put all the folks I followed on my blog roll, but it got to be to large, so I deleted it and just use my dashboard.

I did one thing that made life a little bit easier. I set up a gmail account dedicated to the exclusive use of my blog. Then I had changed my settings so I would be emailed my comments. I can click on the link to their blog profile and open up their post to leave a reply comment. However, not everyone has a hyper link to their blog, but most do.

on my dashboard, it shows all your info.

the girl on your blog, may have joined one blog publicly and the other privately.

good luck!

thanks!

It's just a blank spot.
I know it must be frustrating to work on them and then they do not work.

If you take away the approval feature on the comments it WILL increase your comments from visitors. Just my 2 cents. 🙂

I did get my picture! Thank you – it's lovely! I'm looking for the perfect frame for it and when I do I'll be sure to post it.

I really don't click on my follower thingie. I figure if you want to follow that's lovely but I don't really have time to go to every single person constantly. Some people have over 1000 followers. I can't imagine them having the time to click on every one and visit. Besides some people just like to view a blog and not comment and I'm fine with that! I do it all the time too.

Manuela

Then unless they leave you a comment you cannot access their blog. It can be frustrating at times because you do want to leave them a return comment or follow them as well but cannot. Sigh. 🙂

Good Luck! I hope it all gets fixed for you. Your blog is looking good and you have a huge amount of frinds aka followers! You go girl!

I'll try your new button okay.
~Blessings, ~Melissa 🙂
