Usually, I don't see "blocked" when I check on Google; but I just checked and since yesterday a few Hubs have been blocked. I went through the thing about "how to fix if you got robo.text", but I don't what they mean when they say to add "x" to the top of "whatever".
Does anyone know anything about this (how to fix it, why it happens, etc.). I know absolutely nothing about any of it.
Excuse my ignorance - where are you checking and where does the "blocked" message come up?
As you don't own the HubPages site nor have access to the root files, you can't add any .txt files to your Hubs, as you would if you owned your own domain.
So whatever instance Google is talking about, you can't apply that coding or methods to your Hubs.
relache, thanks. I didn't know what "over the file" meant in Google's tip for fixing the problem, so I didn't know if it was something that applied only to one's own site or one like this one. (There's a lot of Google talk that I don't about. )
id like to know the context of the "blocked" message also

When i edit the format of text on a hub while using Google Chrome, It does not save. Things like paragraphing and headings work, but Bold, Italic, and Underline will not be saved after the text is done being edited. In the hub it simply ignores all of the instances that i bolden,...

I recently filled in a survey on how to improve HubPages but forgot to mention a very important design issue which has been bothering me for a long time.When a text capsule is very long, I like to turn it into 2 adjacent capsules so it works like 2 columns. Easier to read, right? But every time I...
