I'm beginning to think my site has been highjacked.

Support has been dealing with the same issue for almost 3 weeks now, and the responses doesn't even sound like site s

I just contacted Kyle and Carson, via the links provided, both messages went to Site Support which kind of defeats the purpose.

Also, I'm no longer getting email notifications, I have to sign in to WA and check the bell icon.

Hey Melanie,

It might be time to reach out to Carson in a DM: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/message/carson

Just make sure you select "Report Content" so that your message will land in Carson's inbox and NOT back out in a classroom.

Hope you find this helpful.

I reached out to Kyle a couple of times, no response, he may not be getting my messages.
I will try the link you provided.

Thanks Trish, this is helpful.

Mel B

I have had to use them a few times over the last month, and I have had no issues with the service... always helpful and fast!

Okay, thanks for responding.

I've never encountered this kind of service until now. Support is usually very good and quick to respond.

Contact:

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/message/Kyle

https//my.wealthyaffiliate.com/message/Carson

Do this immediately.

Maxine :)

Thanks for the links, I just contacted them both.

In appreciation.
Mel B

My pleasure to offer assistance, Mel

Maxine :)

Let Kyle or Carson know

Thank you Andre, I just contacted them.

Great to hear hope all is sorted t

Hello All,
I want to rebuild a site, and was told I need the tools below.

Where can I find the following info: WordPress installation and tools

Thank you.

if you have deleted your site and want to install wordpress again then goto websites>>sitemanager and at the top click on build a new website - choose 'on a domain i own' and follow the process ( assuming it is hosted at wa)
if it is hosted elsewhere - most have a one click install of wordpress...

I haven't deleted it yet, it just have too many issues, so rebuilding is best.
Thanks for your input, it's appreciated.

Mel B

You don't need any special tools to rebuild a site. You can build and customize right from your WP back office.

Awesome, good to know.

Thank you Eric

I'm thinking of rebuilding my site, it has about 75 articles, some of them can easily be omitted leaving approximately 60.

I'm hoping the new A.I feature will make it ea

You can always update the content. The articles are indexed already. I have changed themes, but you've already laid a foundation, keep working on it.

Thank you Rob, I appreciate your input.

Ask yourself why. Why do you think you need to rebuild your website?

Has your focus changed?

If so, then take a look at why you started that site.

Did you run astray or are you on track?

Then look at your website as a visitor, and see what they see. There may be improvements to be made rather than rebuilding completely.

I have rebuilt websites, from simple edits to full out redesigns. I'll help you in any way I can.

Rudy

Thank you Rudy for your input, the answer is not that simple.
Basically, I had it revamped, now it's more confusing than ever.
This is why Kyle encourages us to build our own site, that way we know how to navigate it.

I sent you a reply pm...

Hi Melanie - Rebuilding a website requires customization. You can start with the Site Identity, Color Options, Typography System, and Layout Options..

I am not an expert. However, I know what caused me to need website improvement. The first thing that I needed to do was change my theme from Twenty Twenty to GeneratePress.

Take it one step at a time, pay attention to details, and voila ici!

Happy Rebuilding!

Is it necessary to save your posted articles?
If so, what is the best method?

Thanks
Mel B

I save EVERYTHING at least twice. Everything ...
Bux

Once bitten, twice shy, as they say.

All your content is already saved in Wordpress as a published article. If Wordpress as a whole went down you wouldn’t have a website at all. I don’t save my articles outside of Wordpress.

I keep a copy of all my articles in. a Notion database. It's prudent. Otherwise the security of my business would be totally dependent on WordPess or WA. This way I have my own building blocks available in case I need them.

Richard

Totally agree Richard. I do the same.
When I was freelance teaching I always had four USB sticks as copies of each other with me wherever I was. They are sat in my desk drawer now, A,B,C & D
How is Portugal tonight.
Bux

Hi Bux
Tonight? Portugal is dark and warm. Friday and Saturday nights can get a bit noisy after about 9pm. All's good.
;-)
Richard

I normally save mine on Microsoft word that way all is saved on my computer

Good idea.

Thanks Andrej.

Most welcome, also once saved I then save it to an external hard drive so if something happens to the computer I have a backup.

Enjoy your day and the rest of the week ahead.

Andre

Me too.. save in Mword.

I Set up folders for each website, label as blog and blogs posted. Easier to find the article without doing a search.

Rudy

Thanks Rudy I do the same. One folder for each website and same with the folders one to be posted and once posted move it to the other folder as done
That keeps it clean and organised
Andre 🙂

Absolutely! :) Google drive on the cloud.
Abie

Good to know.

Thank you Abie.

I was trying to edit my title page from “My Writing Task” menu on the “Hub” page;
first I was trying to edit a single word, but it will not allow.<

You can when you get to write it in the site content.

Otherwise, if published, you may edit everything except changing the URL, especially if it is indexed; if not, you are also free to change the URL.

Chasing the URL to Google would be a new post; any ranking that has been achieved would be lost.

Abie

Thanks Abie, good to know.

Cheers!

Hi Mel, It sounds like you're in the text editor. If that's the case, write the title you want after the paragraph clip and then delete the paragraph clip from the title.

Genius, it worked.

Thank you Dave.

Cheers 🥂
Mel B

You're very welcome, Mel. I'm glad.
