WordPress HELP!!
This group is for neophytes to WordPress who are trying to use it as a Bbd alternative and have questions that “everyone knows” the answers to already. Except those who don’t. Quick answers to specific questions is what I envision here, so we can set up our courses without spending hours trying to find out a simple answer. Of course, we NEED EXPERTS in the group to actually answer the questions. All experts and neophytes please join this group!!

HI El, Log in to the site, go to Blog Dashboard > Tools > Delete Site and follow the prompts. Two thoughts about that: having “delete site” under “Tools” is not the most intuitive thing in the world (nor is the fact that it is called a “site” rather than a “blog”), and wow — […]

Playing around, I created an extra blog. Can I delete this extra blog?
Thanks,

Apologies, Shawn. It sounds like this is related to our recent upgrade. We’ll work on the issue and update this thread soon.

Hi Amanda, Rowena is right, it’s displaying the “not found” message because you haven’t yet posted to your blog. You should be able to access the Dashboard of your blog and create a new post by navigating to the top of your screen and selecting: “My Blogs”> “the name of your blog”> “Dashboard” (or “New […]

I think your blog is there. “Not found” means you do not have any posting yet. Try to post a few sentences. The message should be gone. – This is what I think.

I was invited to join the Commons a couple of days ago, and did so enthusiastically, dutifully following the instructions and creating and naming (well, naming anyway) a blog. The name of my blog appears on my profile page, but when I click on it I get a “not found” message. My blog appears not […]

Hi All, Just a heads-up that we are planning our next major upgrade to the Commons to take place within the next two weeks. The upgrade will include many new features, as it will bring the Commons up to the latest version of WordPress. Among the new features will be a group of 100 premium […]

In Contempt, that “Home” link is hard coded into the nav bar in header.php (line 54)… you’d have to change this text in the file (is Userthemes running on the Commons?) or make the theme aware of WP custom menus.

Thanks for this great intel, Shawn and Sarah! We are using Contempt, which does not seem to support the workaround that Shawn suggests. But we aren’t in love with Contempt, anyway, so maybe this is a good impetus to find a new theme.
Thanks!

Not sure if this blog post will help, but it goes over the instructions for turning your WordPress blog into a website: https://help-staging.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2010/08/31/how-to-turn-your-wordpress-blog-into-a-website/.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to rename the homepage on a WP site here on the Commons? One of the groups I’m in here would like the link to the homepage to appear on the navbar as Blog rather than Home, because we’re using the homepage of the site as a blog. Any info […]
