Ah yes, I want a landing page, which is part of the reason I switched to WordPress. I’m not sure if I can create one yet or not; I’ll have to experiment. But I do know I can switch everything over to .org if/when I want to (I’ll lose the menu and will have to redo the format, but the information will come over). And, from what I’ve seen there are…[Read more]

Yes, @Daus, I’m thinking about changing the title of that section. That’s the nice thing; it’s very easy to switch out to an updated document if spelling errors or other things are caught.
The rose section break was a very tiny jpg picture (which I got from Kate). I made up a style so it would be formatted right and inserted it between sections.…[Read more]

I self-published my novella, Rose of Prophecy a few days ago! It’s currently up free on Smashwords where you can download it in a number of formats. I’m working on getting it free on Amazon as well, but that might take a bit. You can find Rose of Prophecy here. 🙂

@anna-brie I do, but I have it through google and for some reason they only let you renew your name for ten years. Anyhow, my year expires in May so I plan to just buy a new one.
Also, as to wordpress, for the moment I’ve decided to just use WordPress.com. I have limited memory, but I think I’ll be able to do everything else I want (I think).…[Read more]

Yes, but there are also a few places I could buy a domain name without signing up for a hosting site.

Most of the sites I’m seeing (including Site5) you pay by month. I’m currently looking at Bluehost, which is one hostsite which wordpress recommends. It’s around $3 each month, so it isn’t too bad. But I want to pay by year if I can. I’m just wondering if anyone knows of any reliable sites.

*host site, not sight.
And do I need to download one? What did you use, @Daeus and @Ivyrose?

I’ve been looking up wordpress.org (I was on .com before) and apparently part of the difference is that I can make no sense of how to get started. How do I choose a host sight and what, in normal language, is a web server…how do I even start this? Help, please!

Hope Ann replied to the topic WordPress in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 9 months ago
OK, I will. What is the difference?

Also, I was looking at the top of this website…is one row of tabs pages and the other a menu? Or are they both menus? I assume if I make my menu the main navigation tab, only the things I put there will show up.

Thanks, @daeus. I’ve spent part of the afternoon messing around on WordPress and now that I see all the things I can do, I’m wondering why I didn’t start there. 😉 One question, where does one go to create a category. And do you know what exactly the portfolio tab does? Could I link books there?

I’m considering moving my blog from blogger to wordpress. Who here has a WordPress blog? Does anyone have some helpful tips as I try to find my way around? And does anyone know how the menus work, if you can create a linked page, and if you can post to individual pages or if all your blog posts go to the home page (like blogger)?

Yes, wes talks to ourself all the time, precious. 😉 Well, not out loud unless I’m alone, but I do think to myself. Yes, that’s a thing. I have whole conversations in first/second person, making myself laugh in the process. Is that crazy enough?
Love your color characters, by the way. 😉
