    If I highlight some text I want to be reproduced on a blog, then click either BlogThis in the dropdown menu or the button on the toolbar, no text or only the first 2 lines appear in the window that opens, so I have to then copy and paste the text I want in my blog. I don't know if this is how it should now work, but I'm pretty sure that previously all the highlighted text was copied to the window automatically - that was much more convenient.

    I use Blogger.com and WordPress with the latest Firefox.

    For me, all the highlighted text was still copied in the blog window automatically. Could you
    1) Check whether the highlights were stored successfully in your my bookmark page first
    2) Try highlight and blog this on another page to see whether you encounter the same problem
    3) Give us the URL you met the blog this problem.

    Thanks.

    Vimipa:
    1) Try to do "blog this" in your Diigo "My bookmark" page
    a. Select bookmarks
    b. Choose blog this in the more action drop down menu
    If you still fail to send the highlights to the blog this window, the bug may be related to specific account. Please change your password to a temp one, and send it to joel 【at】 diigo dot com. We will look into it closely.
    If you can send highlight to blog this window from your "My bookmark" page, that means the new FF toolbar may conflict with other FF Extensions. In this case, Could you send your FF profile to us, and we'd like to help you out
    To send FF profiles, follow steps in:

    I am having the same problem....which is weird, because I have never had this problem before. I have used the Blog This function many times and the highlights and comments were extracted and placed into the body of the blog post. Now, the only thing that gets entered into the post is the title, URL, and a link that says "Annotated." I hope you can get this fixed soon.
