How do I know if I’m subscribed?
If you’re subscribed, the subscription bar should look like the image below. If it doesn’t look like that, you are not on the email list, even if the website says you are. I don’t currently know why the subscription is not working for some people, but I suspect it has something to do with the email account that the user is registered on WordPress with. I’ll update this if I find a solution. ❤ my readers 😉
