This should be links to your posts. There is procedure how to verify your site at Pinterest. Note that lessons are obsolete (at least those I followed) so no direct links to WA are accepted, contrary to what is (was) in lessons.
I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, I AM GOING TO CHECK I VERIFIED MY SITE CORRECTLY WITH THEM XOXOXO CHEERS GUYS XOXO
DEFINITELY NOT ALONE :-0)) HAVE YOU SORTED YOURS YET....I AM GOING TO TRY AND DO MINE LATER TONIGHT
XOXOXO
What I have realized is that you can post any pictures and have them linked to your website.
You can not use pictures that are linked to anything in the WA community. Or try to link a picture to your WA affiliate link. Pinterest blocks all of those links.
Thank you for checking in.
Hi Janmar, I have been doing some research and the following are my findings. You cannot share the text of a post on Pintrest. Only the pictures can be transfered accrosss. Hope this helps. Irv.
You have to have a pinterest account of course. Then you set up a board. Once you have a board, you can copy the url of a page that has a picture in it and paste it to the board. You do that by clicking on the little plus sign at the bottom right of the page once you have chosen a board. Once you past the url, pinterest will pick up the picture through Javascript and it will be on your board. If there is no picture connect to the url you sent, pinterest will tell you and ask you to choose another page.
Thank you for the training. I can post pictures to Pinterest but can not link anything WA to it.
One of the great things about the community is that we can always learn from others questions!
Hi what you do is get the Pin it button and pin your website images to Pinterest with your website url .
I can fo that. However, my website is not a make money niche promoting Wealthy Affiliate. But I could add some WA promotion on my site.
I understand what you are suggesting but I'm not sure I know how to create that. Is there training for this anywhere?
Actually, I'm posting a WA blog in about an hour about creating images using Canva, and I have an example of this type of image in the blog post.

Hello Janmar, I was checking some links, questions and posts related to search console because just yesterday I have set a training on how to fully verify it in WA, have a look I believe you gonna find it useful ... Why you should authenticate your Google Search Console, and, of course, how to authenticate it in Wealthy Affiliates.
It is not finding personal gmail account and not my easytravel gmail. It is not verifying my account. How do I fix that?
OK Janice if you read the above post and then follow the tutorial listed you can verify both google and bing at the same time. How to Verify Websites Using Yoast SEO Plugin
I did that. I have the meta tags in the boxes. Do I click save changes before going back to the google page to push verify?
Thank you for the reassurance this is going to be good. I had a little glitch but all appears fine now.

I am using Song Writer theme. I want to move some of my posts under the menu categories. How do I do that? I would like the menu category to show a drop down list when I mouse
Thanks for early respondents, I bet you have now answers to your posted question.
I'd like to add, that next time you make/publish a post, there are check boxes on the right in your wordpress editor, check the appropriate boxes in the categories before hitting publish button. Or, if currently don't have categories listed, add one every time you make a post.
Thank you for the help. With the help of the training I do realize I can use those categories now on future posts.
Hey Jan,
I think you have to go to Appearence. Then go to menu. Once you get to menu on the left side of the menu page you'll see pages and post. Check whatever you want on the menu. Then click add. Then it'll be on your menu. Then push update. Then they'll be on your menu perminently. Does that answer your question Jan?
Thank you for the suggestion.
I have sorted it out with some of the training. You are correct and then with some final arranging on that menu page they fall into place.
Please look at my menu bar and if this is what you like, send me a PM and I will help you The Teddy Bear Style. It will cost you a virtual teddy bear hug. Lol

Here is the training page from Kyle Enhancing Your Website "Experience" .
This worked for me on the same Songmaker theme, you can pop over to my site to check it out, site is under my profile.
If you get stuck message me and I will see if I can help.
Cheers

Thank you Wade. I forget to search the WA site for training. I tend to just call for help!
I did follow your training suggestion and I think I have accomplished the task.
there are trainings on making the menu structure - hint make the top menu categories and assign posts to categories.
there are other ways - try searching in top bar
hope you manage to get it sorted
phil
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I do forget about the search bar at the top and just call for help!
glad you got it sorted
i wish everybody would ue the search bar first - then ask if it is confusing or not enough information
have fun

I am using the song writer theme.
I have added images to the header but they do not fill the space all the way across the page. The note says to use images 1800x400 for
Terrific question. I finally figured out that the picture I was using would not get any bigger than that original picture. Some of them do though and others don't. Can get a bit frustrating. Also, I had to get used to having white space on my header that I did not want there but no place to change it. s
There is no way to make your header larger in some themes. have checked all the forums on this, and they say they are working on the issue.
Thank you Jeff. The theme dictates the ideal size of the picture to use that will fill the header space. If you use a picture larger then the suggested size you are able to crop it smaller. If my picture is smaller then the suggested size, I need to stretch the picture if possible to meet the size requirement.
So far I have found.........The theme dictates the ideal size of the picture to use that will fill the header space. If you use a picture larger, then the suggested size, you are able to crop it smaller. If my picture is smaller then the suggested size, I need to stretch the picture if possible to meet the size requirement. Perhaps your theme will be similar.
Hi Janmar, when you click Add Media in you header, you will select the image you want in your media library, before inserting it, go and look in the right side of the window in the editor where there is the Edit Image, scroll down to the bottom and there is a selection of what size you want for the image, thumbnail, there is the second one and the third is restore original size and hit save and insert it in the post, hope this helps.
Thank you for your help. I see that option. I will try that on some of my photos I have tried to adjust.
I don't know what theme you are using, but generally, when you click on an image in the manager, you will see a box around it with small circles at each corner. Put your cursor on those circles and move that side of the image out. It should get bigger. You just have to center it the way you want it. Let me know if this works.
Thank you. I see that I need to start with a photo at least 1800x400 and then I can fill the area as you suggest.
Looks like the original image has to be fairly large. I just tried an image with 1200 width and it works... But with a small image like 600 width comes out just like yours is showing now.
Thank you. I see that those guidelines are for the original picture size. It must be that size or large and then I could crop it down if needed.
I have seen others using this theme that have the image filling the header space. It can be done.....we are just missing a step.
I GAVE UP TACKLING MY HEADER FOR NOW AS I HAVE BEEN SOO UNSCUCCESSFUL IT IS A JOKE :-)) WHEN YOU GET THE SOLUTION WILL YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW TOO XOOXOX TO YOU AND YOURS XOXOX

I've chosen to install Yoast SEO and everything on my site seems to have converted.
Do I delete the previous SEO that was there or just leave it alone?
Thank you
How will I deactivate the original one?
I thought I would see a deactivate button but I do not.
I also just installed Yoast 2 days ago but I didn't delete AIO, I just deactivated it just in case later on I decide I don't like Yoast & decide to go back to AIO.
Galen, it is best to delete the AIO SEO. Eve a deactivated plugin will have an effect on load time. It is easy to re-install if needed.
