In my haste to get going I have written a few posts with the author named as admin. Is it possible to change them to myself?
Certainly. Open your dashboard as admin and go down the right hand side and you will see users. Then add new user. Note you will need a new email address it cant be the same as admin. Fill in the details, and give yourself Admin privileges. Click save. Login as the new user and go to all users, open admin and under the details it says delete , delete admin

Changing author from admin to myself?
In my haste to get going I have written a few posts with the author named as admin. Is it possible to change them to myself?
In the user's tab, please type your first name, then choose it from the drop-down menu, saving your changes.
Or add a new user in your name and assign it Admin privileges. Then you need a different email address to it.
Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it!
I changed the admin to myself and my name comes up as author on the home page blog roll but admin still comes up as author to individual posts after I have zoomed in?
In addition a block has appeared at the top of the published post with my name and a slug to add a picture. How do I add a pic and a tiny bio to that area? Plus the typeface of that block is far too prominent. It overshadows the headline of the article?
Thank you!

Also, are you using an author bio plugin or something?
Please can you give us your webeit URL to have a look, thank you.
Thanks for all your help.
When I click on my name at the top of the article it brings up my name again, this time in large print together with an empty photo slug. It is too prominent particularly as I already have an about me section in the top menu. Can I retain my name as author while also dumping this link?
My website URL is sixtysevenandup.com

This tutorial by Kyle is class 4 entitled ‘Making Search Engines Love Your Website. Within it Kyle describes how the ‘Site Kit By Google’ is already embedded to your new site. He activates it and a window pops up saying that the site kit plug-in is now activated. That new window has a ‘start set up’ button within it. Problem is that since this training was initiated the plug in, prior to my arrival, has already been activated and there is no longer a welcome screen from Google. The Plug In is there and says it is activated but I cannot add my g mail account or do the other things necessary to set it all up! Hope this makes sense to you!
You need to activate and set it up :)

Thank you for following up. I actually did that yesterday and it worked! Yay. I also had to disconnect the proxy server for everything to work properly.

Is it possible to stylize just the tagline within my website (published to the right of the logo area) by changing it to a different font and adjusting the type size? I am at
you maybe lucky and find under appearance>>customize >>typography the tagline font....
but if we know what the site url is we maybe able to help with som ecss if necessary...
you can add
.site-description {
font-family: cursive, serif, fantasy;
font-size: 15px;
}
to appearance>>customize>>additional css
the font-family is the one to change and the size if you want to....
but not all fonts are available - have been playing with them and if they come up green then they are valid....
if you add a google font you may need to host it locally or be in contravention of hte gdpr regs....
the reason for more than one font is if the browser doesn't support one it goes to the backup...
font size can be included or not if you want to make it bigger
don't know about you but i like - see image
so you would add
.site-descrption{
font-family: cursive;
font-weight: 800;
}
to appearance>>customize>>additional css
and publish...
Thank you for going to such lengths to help, I appreciate that very much although I must admit that that approach is a little out of my area of expertise. I guess that it must be a little complicated to do for a reason? All I really wanted to achieve was to add the tagline to the immediate right of the logo and to use it as a kind of flourish that immediately describes what the site is all about. Perhaps it should have been part of the logo itself.
What do you think?
i think i know what you are saying....
you could try this ...
you may need to mess around with the numbers for the tagline and the logo
but you should be able to put the logo above the tagline...
.site-description {
font-family: cursive, serif, fantasy;
font-size: 15px;
position: absolute;
top: 80px;
}
.header-image.is-logo-image {
position: absolute;
top: -19px;
}

I am using Generate Press in WordPress and am attempting to place items at the very top of the page and to the right of the logo as illustrated in the training. I have renamed
I hope this has been figured out.
The layout could possibly relate to your theme; what theme are you using?
That's great. :) You may want to move your WA review under its own heading, as that would be your first recommendation. Just an idea here.
Later, you will do categories; You can hover over posts and click categories.
Create as many categories as you like; don't forget to add the slug.
Then, you can head to Appearance > Menus, and provided you create a menu first, you can start adding those categories.
Then, you can head to your posts and assign them to their respective categories. You can assign a post to more than one category.
So, when folks click on a specific category, they can see all related posts.
Hi Howard,
Make sure you set the menu to the Primary menu, see the screenshot.
If you have done that and it is still in the wrong position, you need to adjust the theme by going to:
Appearance > Customize
Layout > Header
Then activate: Use Navigation as Header (see screenshot)
Regards,
Jay

I wanted to import images to a practice post using the WA article designer. I have selected images, cropped them, they were ready to go but there does not appear to be a method
You can add images to the site content after it (the article) is done.
You can access the content area through the website tab at the top menu.
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/content/new
I click the highlighted mountain button.
Or you may do it after it is published in the Block Editor. Free Image Sources You can also use AI images like Bing Creator, Text to Image app via Canva Magic Media, DALL-E via ChatGPT-4 (paid), Leonardo.AI (free and paid) and MidJourney (paid)
Here is how I do it.
I save the image as a jpeg to my computer.
I go to the back office get into my post,
open the block editor, and click on the 'image' icon.
Click on Media Library, then click Upload; I find the one I want and click on it.
I use the title as the alt text ( I do describe it more here).
then click Select at the the bottom.
And there you go :-) let me know if you have any questions.
Sorry, I jumped ahead; you have to find the image; WA still has some you can use here. I use Canva and either choose a photo or make my own. That is the process I tried to explain above, using.
Canva.
