  • Want two Comments features…

    Since the Contact Support page doesn’t work, I want the following two improvements for the “Comments” tab of my WordPress apps (Version 1.4.1):

    1. Add an “Edit” button feature!
    2. Add a “Proofread” button feature!

    Thank you. Now FIX it and make me happy!!!

  • No help…

    I have more suggestions for WordPress.com but the Contact Support link doesn’t work! What’s going on? Am I being intentionally LOCK OUT from improving my weblogging experience? That’s it! I’m not getting anywhere here!

    If you want to help, make sure the [Search] button works! Where do I go to submit a complaint — the Forum? Why do you want me to make my ideas, suggestions and troubleshooting public?

    Why isn’t this feature working?

    How can we help?

  • Contact << Support, not working again…

    Out of bad habit, I just delete all and any spam without reviewing each one. Most of them are drugs for enlargement and other unwanted deals. I just got tired of reading the contents. And assumed that the Akismet application does a good job with removing spam. I guess I was wrong.

    So I’m trying to “ask” the WordPress.com support a simple question: Can you help me retrieve something that was permanantly deleted in ERROR by this particular reader? And this is the message I get from the site:

    I typed in a few words and it doesn’t move! Perhaps, Matt meister and pals are off to bed and forgot to turn on the ‘Submit’ button! How can y’all help if I can’t find the answers?

    So I searched for “spam” on the same contact page and found “http://en.support.wordpress.com/unwanted-comments/&#8221;. I gave it a thumbs down, making me unhappy reader number 164! I was hoping to see some ray of hope regarding permanantly deleted comments. But I guess that’s the way it is.

  • How can we help? Fix it!

    What’s going on with the WordPress.com contact support page? It’s no help because when I typed at least ONE word into the blank field and after I pressed the “Search” button, nothing happens! To Matt meister and pals, fix it, fix it, fix it! I have two more issues and troubleshooting suggestions as improvement with the WordPress for Android Version 1.4.1.

    In recent news,

    Guided Transfers to .org
    by Hew

    Guided Transfer

    One of our Happiness Engineers will transfer your site to a self-hosted WordPress.org installation with one of our partners. They will transfer over all your content, install and configure plugins to support features you have used on WordPress.com, switch your domain(s) over, and provide support on your new WordPress.org install for a two-week period.

    Hmm: What is the price of revealing my blogging material under my true identity — my agent name, a copyright? Is it my soul for eternal bliss in heaven or in purgatory (a virtual hell on earth) or my insanity for temporary fortune and fame or $99.00 for having my “site transferred by one of our Happiness Engineers to a self-hosted WordPress.org installation with one of our partners”?

    I want it all and now! But alas, I must clean up my clutter at home first and then I will have enough time to dedicate hours of blogging fun.

  • Tranfer Blog to Another User

    I was lurking my Global Dashboard and came across this message boxed in red color:

    Transfer [weblog here] to Another User

    Big Important Warning!

    Transferring a blog cannot be undone. Please read the following actions that will take place when you transfer this blog:

    * You will be removed as owner of [weblog here]
    * You will not be able to access [weblog here] allowed by the new owner
    * Your paid upgrades on [weblog here] will remain with the blog

    Note that you will be sent a confirmation email to [email here] before the above actions are performed.

    Please make sure this is what you want to do before continuing!

    [check here] I understand, now let me continue.


    It looks scary enough. So I didn’t check the box or get a chance to enter “Username or email address of user to receive the blog”.

  • Bye Blog Surfer

    Well, after lurking my Global Dashboard, I read something new about the following feature:

    Blog Surfer

    Please note: The blog surfer is being phased out and replaced with the new Subscriptions feature. All of your blog surfer subscriptions will be transferred within the next 48 hours, after which the blog surfer feature will be removed. For more information on the new subscriptions features, please take a look through the support page.

    Is this your first time using the Friend Surfer?

    You can add new names in the textbox to the left of this page. If you’re looking for some fresh content, check out Blogs of the Day or the Global Tags pages. Find the author of a blog you like, come back here and type their name in. You’re subscribed!

  • Deleting Tags

    Ah! I’ve just visited the forum for answers on how many number of tags and/or categories combinations. Here is the answer: http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/tags/

    Five to 10 tags (or categories, or a combination of the two) is a good number to add to each of your posts. The more tags you use, the less likely it is that your post will be selected for inclusion in the global tag listings.

  • 20101011-Tweaking Again

    By golly! I think I’m actually happy (temporarily) with the multiple-colored appearance of my WordPress.com weblog, thanks in part to the Custom CSS Upgrade. This time the background colors are pastel for the CSS elements:

    • Light blue for the “post title”;
    • Light yellow for the “comment meta”;
    • Light orange for the “blockquote”‘;
    • Light pink for the “post feedback”; and
    • Light green for the “sidebar h2”.

    The overall gray color minimizes the brightness of the white backgrounds of the “header”, “wrapper”, “content” and “sidebar”.

  • 20101003-Tweaking Again

    Bahaha! Like my feed showing each article as a summary, my “front/home” page now shows less than EXCERPTS! It’s sheer torture to “force” readers to “Read more” by clicking on each blog/post/article entry! My purpose was to eliminate long entries and to the focus of my sidebars, which contain blogroll links to orgone vendors and such.

    Thanks to the WordPress.com Custom CSS Upgrade, I’ve made my weblog pretty again. It has Donna’s favorite colors of purple (for the header) and green (for the sidebar headers). As a result, I cannot get the purple as a border around the site because of the hard-coding of the original theme designer. The fonts are basic black against white background for her sake again.

    The WordPress.com theme used (AGAIN) is:

    Sandbox 0.6.1 by Andy Skelton & Scott Allan Wallick

    A theme with powerful, semantic CSS selectors and the ability to add new skins.

    I like this theme because it has the templates for ARCHIVES and LINKS. Other themes have one or the other. Plus, I require my TIME/DATE STAMP to appear on both the “body.home” and “body.single” elements. So I’m keeping this one for awhile until I get bored with the layout. Sheesh!
