Once logged in you should be able to verify unless you accidentally used the wrong email address.

You may need to use a separate browser (or private/incognito mode) since we use cookies to track the authenticated user. A user is able to verify (or deny/disable) all comments attributed to their email address.

Try going to https://my.remarkbox.com/u/<username> to view all comments from a user. Try replacing <username> with the unverified user's display name.

For example, your comments for your main user are here:

Thanks, Russell, that was helpful. I tried a private browsing window, but it still took me back to the blog post without giving me the chance to verify. However, I realised the URL has a parameter forcing the return to the post. I removed that part, and I was able to get to the user page and verify the comment.

This seems like a bug. The URL that was emailed to me was:

And I edited it to:

Until I did that, I had no chance to see what username had been allocated for the test email address, so no way I can see of getting to anything useful on this site.

I posted another reply yesterday, but it doesn't seem to appear here. I can see it on my profile, though, so I'm not quite sure what's happening. Anyway, what I said is this:
