How to set up wordpress

Posts Tagged ‘Upload’

Glad to see you again! Be sure and check out the Blog page. Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions. Have a great day! Lina

I use WordPress for a blog hosted on my own site, and it is saying it needs to be updated. I’m afraid that if I upload the new version to my site, it will erase my previous posts.
Also, would I have to uninstall the previous version from the server before uploading the updated version?
Sorry, new to this and not sure what to do.

Ok i created a wordpress theme using Artisteer and save it to my computer
then i went and created an account at wordpress.com im new to wordpress so i dont know if they allow doing this, so i want to know how can i upload my theme to my wordpress blog… please

I am getting these gray borders around any pics that I upload to my posts. Anyone know how to get rid of them? I’m using Wordpress 2.6. Help! My blog is at www.gocaptus.com/blog to see the annoying borders yourself. Thanks in advance.

You may include a third party add on to your blog using a html/javascript widget (page element) available on the
Template | Page Elements | [Add Page Element] (link)http://theedifier.com/blogging-blogger/

I have the template files in a zip folder and am stuck beyond that. I don’t know where to go on Wordpress to paste the code and upload the new template. Thanks for any and all advice!

It doesnt accept the file type It only accepts these files. jpg, jpeg, png, gif, pdf, doc, ppt, odt. It doesnt accept bmp file type Is there a way to make it accept that file type? I know heatblast 227 does it and so does watex. I dont know how they do it.
Please help!

When I try to add an image to a post a button appears saying “choose files to upload” but when I click it nothing happens. Unfortunately I cannot upgrade as I do not have the FTP details.

Today, I received an invitation to test out Flowtown. Flowtown is a new application that allows you to upload your email subscriber list and append social media to the list. I tested it with my email list and it worked flawlessly.

As companies continue to adopt social media, tools like Flowtown will come in handy to synchronize their following outside of email and into other social applications and networks.

Click through to the video of how Flowtown works if you don’t see it in your feed or email.

Pricing is 5 cents a record and there are some limits on the number of emails you can send. I’m impressed with quality of the service as well as the accuracy. They already have a Mailchimp integration so I was able to import my subscribers directly from an existing subscriber list within Mailchimp. Pretty nice feature!

The application updated over half of my records and appended Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, Flickr, StumbleUpon and Amazon accounts where it identified a match. It took approximately 2 seconds per record and the system emailed me when it was completed. I tested about 20 of the appends and didn’t find any issues with them.

What I don’t like is that I can’t export the appended data (or that’s how it appears, anyways). If I bought it, I should be able to export it and just not view it. I’d love to use a system like this and push the data to another Email Marketing Platform. This would allow enterprise clients to upload a delta file of the customers they don’t have data for and manage the email in an external system where they’re storing many more data attributes.

As well, paying for every record is a bit risky if you have a crappy email list. With the past data append providers I’ve worked with, there was typically a base cost and a price per successfully appended record.

Still some pretty cool stuff – looking forward to seeing how their pricing evolves and if they’ll offer an API. There are more services and applications like this popping up – Rapleaf is one that I recently discovered. You can sign up at no cost at Rapleaf and see your own profile… it’s a bit scary, they identified me accurately across 22 different social networks and applications and even identified old email addresses that I had used! Rapleaf also allows you to opt-out of their database, a very very nice feature.

If your using wordpress.com, your screwed, get your own hosting and domain, its better in the long run.
If you are using the wordpress script from wordpress.org, download a theme, extract, upload via ftp to the themes directory. (universal with almost all cms)

I have a website, i have made just in dreamweaver and photoshop, and the client who has already gone ahead and bought a domain name with wordpress and wants the site i have made on there. But how can i just upload my html and css, and not use a theme?
