I am working on the Re-Blog feature, namely attribution aspects. Often some one else’s posts are mistaken for my own personal work, and not identified sufficiently as re-blogs. In the introduction to the re-posts I want to get across specific and adequate information as to the origin, author, link/url … and also include a comment of my own about why I am doing the re-post.
Another thing, I would like to have a way to smoothly link-to, or add-to the re-blogged post related posts of my own.
Suggestions welcome, as usual…
I haven’t reblogged in a while but when I did I could always include all the info you’re speaking of! Perhaps the WordPress forum?

My example is the re-blog yesterday about the Kookaburra… I didn’t write it or post it, and I’ve never been near Australia even…but who the author was isn’t clear. I am just concerned that proper credit be given when due.
YOU always do the thing right…when you re-blog a poem. It is clear from the very top of the post that it is being reposted. There’s no question about it ever… no need to think about who the author is. SO you are probably the example I want to follow.

ha…when I’m writing, maybe, I tend to think so fast I get tongue-tied when talking: forget words, try to edit speech!

this may be common to writers to write better than speak. I tend to be very precise, drives my kids nuts.

Thank you. I meant that when I have reblogged, I did not have the problems you have been having. So you’re saying it’s the theme of the blog?
