Akismet and All in One SEO Pack are showing that there is an update for these plug-ins. When I click on update is there anything that comes up that I need to change? or its doe

Before doing any updates to plugins I always go to the tools tab in my website dashboard and export my pages and posts in case the worst happens. Reloading a theme is easy, but if you don't save pages and posts then there is a lot of work lost.

I learned a very important step. I have never done that with an update. Thank you for that cautionary tip. It's a good one.

just click update, and it will let you know if the update was successful or not...that is all you need to do =)

thanks so much....

Okay I got all excited, signed up a missed the part that I am associated with wordpress already. Tried to back track but too late. Checked my email, got my code but also a mes

I'm not understanding. Did you download the Akismet plug-in? If you did, when you go to activate it, it will ask you to set up your account within WordPress. Here's Kyle's video on how to install Akismet. Don't know if it will help or not. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-install-akismet-protect-your-website-from-spam

I did get an API code, but I also got a wordpress account as well. I forgot to click that I already had one...does that make any difference?

It shouldn't, but I really don't know. You should be able to activate from within your WordPress account. Maybe someone else here will know better what to do. Sorry.

Hey Carla, I got it...poked around some more and found some info to help me...yeah....You can use the API code for any wordpress sites...Thanks for helping... Oh yeah had to update it as well...so far so good... :)

Fantastic!!!!!

Well I did fine creating admin new user id for my website but when creating my next website I create a new user id for that too right?

In my two websites, I have two users in each: Admin and Carla. Admin comes up automatically when you create the site. You have to go in and manually add another user. Kyle, in his training, says names are better than admin, more personal.

Agreed Carla.... .same with me, I also have two users in each Admin and Gary. You do have to create the named user (Gary or whatever) manually on each website.

Hi Carla, okay so with each website we always automatically have Admin and for each website we create our personal user. Got it but the password would be different for each one right? Right...lol You know I can't believe how much I am enjoying learning again! Thanks for your help Carla...Going to take a break before I continue..

Hi Gary thanks so much for helping me out...I'm assuming for each personal user name (which would be a constant) we have to use a new password for that specific website...Like I mention to Carla, I am enjoying learning again, it has been a long time..The brain is starting to absorb again...lol

Yes. To access your admin account, you can go in through WA. But to access your personal user, you will have to use the name and password combo you set when you set up the user.

yes, correct. Admin has a password and your other user name has its own password. Glad you're enjoying it. This is fun... I love learning as well. Best wishes to you.

I believe you can just the same user id for any and all websites you create. Not entirely sure though since I only have 1 website. I can't imagine why not though

Hello EChapman,

If you are referring to an email for a siterubix, you need to create it outside, GMAIL, HOTMAIL ETC
However when you get your domain you can set it up to your domain
