Happy Mancat Monday everyone! Before I start, I want to remind everyone in the U.S. that this Sunday is Mother’s Day. Whatever you do, don’t forget your Mama. Now then, we’ve been busy trying to solve a frustrating blog problem for those of you who subscribe to get our new blog posts via email. The plugin we use had a major issue whereby the evil ones could gain access to our behind the scenes blog works. That’s not good, especially because the author of the plugin had yet to fix the problem. So, we deleted it and started hunting for a new plugin.
It was a difficult search, some that we checked out were really difficult to setup and use, some of the others were too invasive and weren’t good for your privacy as subscribers. We finally found one we like and those of you who subscribe by email should now be receiving our new blog post email every morning. So, that solves one problem and we have one to go. We now need to replace the one over at The Cat Blogosphere so the subscribers over there can once again start getting the posts via email too. I know lots of you have been through the hunt for a good newsletter plugin, it’s quite challenging.
Okay, that’s it for me today, catch you later! Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!
I am glad you have sorted out your plug in problem. I get my notifications in Reader.
I did notice the new look of the newsletter–I like it! Got to keep those nasty ones out!
the mama looked at us and we looked at her… and then our dad said.. but we are in france LOL
Well done Brian – one problem solved and one more to go….life is like that sometimes isn’t it! I would never forget Mother’s Day – that’s the lady who feeds me every single day and brushes me and takes me outside and doesn’t yell at me when I accidentally scratch her!
Hugs, Teddy
Same here, Teddy.
I sub your content in Feedly. I used to have email sub function, but after blogger stopped the service, I could only use free version of MailChamp, which now want to charge the service…so I let it go.
Brian, you and your dad are evidently computer smart. Congratulations on figuring out something that I wouldn’t have even known was wrong.
There always seems to be something going on to complicate life! Good luck getting everything in proper working order again!
Purrs,

There is always something with websites. We wish things could just be set up and run forever, but that isn’t the case. We noticed we were not getting your posts, but it seems to work now.
I use Feedly, so that makes it easy! I’m glad you got that sorted out, Brian!
What a pleasant surprise to see you here at my home this morning, Brian You were just in time to have some eggs with us. Welcome. And seeing your dear face was another wonderful start to our day.
Gee!! Everything is fine until it isn’t :/
Purrs you do not have any more troubles!
Purrs, Julie
So good you are up and go as you wanted now again.
Gosh that sounds very complicated, I did think it odd your newsletters stopped so will resubscribe, it’s something we’ve not got on our blog except for the basic blogger version about new posts so I’d best find out if it’s still working. We’d love to be able to send out newsletters but it’s all far to technical for our humum to master xxx
What a bummer, Brian!
Here’s hoping you won’t have any more troubles with that.
i don’t even know what a plug in is, so hope I never have to deal with one. blogging tech stuff makes me crazy and this sounds like one I would not want to deal with.
Good to hear you have nearly sorted the problems plugins can be a pain in the catnip sometimes but you are now getting there 👍 nice photo btw 🙂
Have a plugintastic Monday 👍
I hate it when a plug-ins goes sideways. I’m glad you’ve resolved the problem.
Brian is most handsome.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches all around and my best to your peeps. ♥

Cute pictures of you, Brian! I’m getting email notifications again now! Good luck sorting everything else out, I find tech stuff baffling!
To all the mommies out there! Nice of you to remind us all.
You are a very smart cat, Brian. I have no idea what your blog problem was about, or that there was a problem, but good to hear you fixed it.
Brian you and your assistant are very hard working Men
Hugs Cecilia
Sounds like your IT department is on top of things Brian!
Happy Monday!

We’re glad to hear you solved your problem. It’s no fun when technology goes haywire.
Ugh!! Blogging email/site problems are the worst!!! Do you know I never knew we could get the Cat Blogosphere via email? I never knew that!
We have Feedly so we always get your posts, Brian!
Good work! Have a great week!
Sorry for all the problems. Better to have computer problems than kitty problems though. XO
The world wide web can be both a blessing and a curse, the same as Mom sometimes feels about me. XOXOXO Chia
Good detective work on the part of your helpers. We get notification of your blog through https://www.inoreader.com/all_articles and it seems to work well. Have a great week too.

Coffee is on and stay safe
Good to hear you fixed the plug in problem. I was just saying technology is hard! But over here you all have it down. I love your photo. Have a terrific new week.
Hurray! You solved that mystery. Technology is not my favorite place to be. Somedays too complicated. But you are all so smart here. Glad your problem is solved. Love that photo. Have a wonderful new week.
Brian – thanks for the reminder about Mother’s Day!
Don’t you wonder why tech things are changing, or stop working? I always think “if it’s not broke, don’t fix it” but obviously someone somewhere is much smarter than me!
Thanks for visiting my blog!
Thank you for your caring and diligence in helping to solve this problem for others.
It’s hard to get good help these days!
Yes, we’ve got mail…again😺 but not anymore of the Catblogosphere🙈Glad you fixed it, Brian. Good Luck Pawkisses🐾😽💞
