Re: Wordpress help please
Chris - thanks for trying to help, but no joy so far. I've clicked on blog admin, on dashboard, on profile, and on personal, but no sign of that edit box for visiual editor. The layout is a bit strange, in that there are things on the screen that using vo f to search for, doesn't bring up any results, but just tabbing does find things that the search feature doesn't, but still there is no sign of this visual editor! - Andy On 6 Oct 2013, at 00:13, Christopher-Mark Gilland ch...@clgproductions.com wrote: Andy, it's in your dashboard.

Re: Wordpress help please
That's under the tag of the website in general settings. The reason I have the check box is because I think I'm self hosted. Oh no I'm self hosted, but every wordpress.com site I've looked at they don't' have the visual editor check box for some reason under profile. If you want an example of a simple wp site I put together r for my business go to http://alawamiproductions.com/listen it is not beautiful and fancy and full of bling bling, but it works.

Re: Wordpress help please
The blog tag line (worlds greatest blog or whatever) is in settings/general, I just changed mine the other day. Also, for the visual editor, when editing a post, you'll see the words text and visual shortly after the post title. route your mouse to the word text and click it, and you'll be in the text editor, and not in the visual editor. I don't know if it holds that setting from session to session, but it'll put you out of visual editor for the current session.

Wordpress help please
hi all - I'm having a difficult experience with Wordpress. I've created my blog account, and written my first post of introduction, and had somebody look at it for me. All that they see is a lot of what I am taking to be tags from the post, and not the post itself. I haven't got to grips with adding tags to a post yet, so it seems like wordpress itself has just created them by pulling together groups of words from sentences. This is quite meaningless as a tag, but as yet, as I say, I've not got to grips with how tags can be added, changed or deleted. The big thing for now is that my post doesn't actually seem to be available in it's complete form as I wrote it. I did click the publish button, and got a message to say it had been published, but all that appears to anybody trying to read it, is this set of 4 or 5 word extracts, that I'm assuming to be tags, and the word tag is onscreen, just before these jumbled extracts.

Re: Wordpress help please
Andy, You've certainly done, by the sound of your post, an excellent job at researching things. I commend you for looking at the help pages. That's not something that a lot of people would do. Let me ask you a question, sir. Are you using Mars Edit to post to your blog, or are you just using the wordpress web site with Safari? If the latter, I'll see if I can help you, but I normally don't do it that way. This being said though, I can look at my blog and try to help you out, if needed.

Re: Wordpress help please
Hi Christopher - I've used both Safari and Google Chrome with Wordpress, with much the same results. I'm wondering if there might be an easier way to go. Self-hosting has been mentioned, but that sounds pretty tricky too. I've had a look on the applevis website for any helpful podcasts on blogging, but could only find one pertaining to the iPhone app. I listened to it, but the presenter was having a bit of a struggle herself with one or two things - Andy On 5 Oct 2013, at 14:15, Christopher-Mark Gilland ch...@clgproductions.com wrote: Andy, You've certainly done, by the sound of your post, an excellent job at researching things.

Re: Wordpress help please
Log in to yoru wordpress.com admin area and go to profile. There should be a way to turn off the visual editor. This is actually the problem I had one person's account. Itr was not there so they I think ended up canning it. I'm not sure. I never spoke to said person after that. lol! but try that. log in to yoru admin control panel where you see the dash board and updates and all of that jazz. then go to profile, and turn off the visual editor and then click save or update changes or what ever is there now. Take care. On Oct 5, 2013, at 11:17 AM, Andy Collins a...@recreation.plus.com wrote: Where to I go to turn off the visual editor?

Re: Wordpress help please
Andy, it's in your dashboard. Go to your profile. I think there is a link that says either profile, or my profile, or something to that effect. Under here, you'll see it. It's the very first option. It's a checkbox that says disable the visual editer.
