It's really amazing, and so user friendly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1150013 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 01:57:12 +0000 sunny 1150013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wordpress definitely has more of a learning curve than Blogger or other tools. But the tradeoff is so much more flexibility. I would say stick with it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149919 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 22:24:19 +0000 mrbee 1149919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: Webmaster rates are all over the place... but they tend to be very high for the good ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149913 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 22:20:50 +0000 irene 1149913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: How much do they charge? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149888 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:37:44 +0000 mrbee 1149888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: I have some designer friends who barter design work for webmastering work... might be a good way to get work like this done well and cost effectively! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149864 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:18:41 +0000 irene 1149864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: I do! I have just deleted and reinstalled the whole thing, but it says I am missing the wp-config.php file. I tried to get in touch with the web host to get the configuration data (database name and all) but they sounded clueless (wth????). They said they'll get back to me in an hour, about 45 minutes ago.</p> <p>I may wall you tomorrow - thanks for your help in advance!! Argh!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149853 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:09:25 +0000 wheres_c 1149853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you need help, wall me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149850 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:08:53 +0000 wheres_c 1149850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would delete and reinstall. There have been so many updates since 2010 and the newer version is much more user friendly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1149836 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:00:14 +0000 pui 1149836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Perhaps you should try updating WordPress? There has been a lot of updates since 2010. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1148884 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 11:34:26 +0000 irene 1148884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Ehh... I don't even know how to check or do that. I didn't particularly lock anything up! Grrr.. Can I just delete the whole directory and install from scratch? (Note: I don't even remember how I installed it in the first place lol)</p> <p>Ahhhh!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1148847 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 11:22:46 +0000 Espion 1148847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just commiserating. I can't get the web client to load because safari "cannot establish a secure connection". I cannot figure out how to fix it for the life of me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1148838 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 11:20:32 +0000 mrbee 1148838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think if you just set the file permissions on your server for your upload folder, it should work!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1148836 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 11:19:12 +0000 mrskc 1148836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry no advice. I tried to use wordpress and I was confused by it so I use blogger. I thought it was more user friendly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-be-an-expert-to-use-wordpress-grrr#post-1148832 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 11:16:45 +0000 irene 1148832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually installed wordpress onto my server back in 2010 (!) but didn't do much with it, but recently I really wanted to start a blog for downloadable printables / DIY projects and miscellaneous things / photography / design. </p> <p>So I went back to what I have installed in 2010, and I am lost in the clouds. I attempted to change the logo I uploaded in 2010, but when I want to reload another image, it said the directory couldn't be created. I tried to hide that stupid calendar on the side bar, it won't go away! Grrr????</p> <p>I saw a handful of nice templates too and thought I could just start from scratch with it. Do I just delete everything I had before from my server and start from scratch?</p> <p>Note that I used to work in the web industry in late 1990 to 2000. I used to be the queen of HTML back in the days and I could build anything! Well, I went off to design for a different media since. 13 years passed and I am back to square one of knowing nothing!!! But I thought things are supposed to be much easier to use now that the human beings has 20 years of experience on useability?? Or did I just got dumber? :sad: </p> <p>Any advices is welcomed!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-plugins-for-wordpress#post-228838 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 13:01:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 228838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Thanks, that was what I was missing. </p> <p>I guess I will have to continue to just directly load instagram pictures into my blog! I wish there was a better "instant" feed. I did find a site that had code for a instagram feed widgit but it doesn't seem to be working. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-plugins-for-wordpress#post-228827 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 12:54:44 +0000 mrbee 228827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry, you're out of luck!</p> <p><a href="http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/" rel="nofollow">http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/</a></p> <p>&lt;&lt; Plugins are tools used to extend the functionality of the WordPress platform.

It says there should be a link for plugins on my dashboard menu but I don't see anything. Do I need a Pro wordpress or something? </p> <p>I am trying to download and install a plug in that will create a post with my instagram pictures when I take a new one. Any suggestions? </p>
