Please, somebody, take me to the page where I can edit my profile. I can't find it.
Thanks.

Hello Cal
I click on the profile icon top right of my browser and select view profile from the drop down dashboard. Edit and save changes.

Wishing you well and a terrific day.

Looks like you got your answer.
I just noticed. It looks like you have finished Online Entrepreneur training Levels 1 - 5. Very nice. Congratulations.

Thanks.
But it took a long time.
Cal

It doesn't matter how long it took. The key is you did it!!

Hi Cal ... if you click on your mugshot more or less anywhere in WA (the constant is top right of the page) it'll take you to your profile. At the foot of the profile words there is a link to 'Edit bio'.

That should do it ...

Thanks very much. I will try that.

I saw the expression on my homepage. Would somebody please tell me what it means?
Thanks.

Hey Cal,

In Google searching that prompt you saw on your homepage, I'm guessing that you may be using the Smush Pro plugin.

In checking your profile, I could not find your website URL shared under your Follow me section, so I could not verify my suspicion.

You may want to repeat the search I did and read through the posts shared to see if one of the can assist you in fixing that prompt.

Hope you find this helpful.

Hi, Triblu,
Thanks for your suggestions.

I was not using Smush to answer your question. But I'm now. I thought EWWW Image Optimizer would do a better job than Smush. But because of your comments, I decided to install and activate Smush. To my greatest surprise, I saw 86 uncompressed and unoptimised images! What was my EWWW I.O. doing?

I have asked questions about two observations you made I did not understand: (1) now - "I could not find your website URL shared under your Follow me section." (2) before - "your theme not optimized." Would you please refer me to where to find the answers?
Again, thanks.
Cal.

Hey Cal,

I was NOT recommending that you use Smush. That was simply an observation because your question was so vague that I was left guessing.

Kraken is the image optimizer recommended by WA: for image optimization. I use it on all of my sites.

However, if you are happy with Smush, I wouldn't worry about changing that plugin now.

To answer your questions:
(1) the following tutorial may offer you the help you seek: (2) not all wp themes are optimized as well as, let's say, GeneratePress, that helps sites load faster... without a lot of unnecessary script left behind from initial development. See screen print below...

Thanks. I will check them out.

Was there an error code with it?

Hi Everybody,
I have an active login on my site I want to get rid of. Which is more preferable:
deactivate or delete it?

Why not just delete it as it serves no purpose

Hey Cal,

If there is another user who has registered on your website with or without your permission, and you do NOT want them to have that access, then it is important to DELETE them.

If you did NOT grant them access, then be sure to go to your:
Dashboard > Settings > General Settings ...and make sure that "Anyone can register" is NOT check marked beside Membership.

If it IS check marked, uncheck it, then scroll down the page and click on the Save Changes button.

Hope you find this helpful.

Hi, All
I have just completed the Online Entrepreneur Certification; each section was checked and rechecked. All marked 100% complete. But on my profile, my training is mar

Hey Cal, as a few others have mentioned, the training on your profile is related to training that you may have submitted to the community. Your progress in the training has displayed in the "Training" menu, you'll see what lessons you've completed and where to continue in the training from there.

Thanks for your explanation. But where have I been? I wouldn't say I'm sorry for asking because I learned something new from your answer.
Cal.

Yea as already said this is about training you have written for the WA community.

Thanks, my friend. That was one of the many 'little' things I don't know.

Hi - that tab relates to how many training tutorials you have written for other members.

Thanks for your help, Diane. I had always assumed it was for training I completed. Dumb!

HI, you haven't added any training have you?

Training tab in your profile is your input vs WA.

Thanks, my friend, for your help. Who can believe that I made such a wrong assumption about a tab I come across every time I log into my site? What a shame!

Have you ticked your check boxes? I'm new and have found if I do this it moves me straight to the next section in training

Hi, MOOnmist,
Welcome to WA, and thanks for your contribution to the question.
Believe me; it is embarrassing that I had not learned what the tab, 'Training' stood for after so long here. But, "we grow wiser every day," as the saying goes.
As a new person here, it may be a teaching/learning moment - how our community rallies around a member when she/he has a question.
You may like to know that here there is no dumb question. But, what is dumb is not asking when you have one.
Good luck.
Cal.
