web page? It's in a blue box. I looked it up but it was a long code sequence I didn't understand

seems like you got your question answered all the best

go to APPEARANCE --> CUSTOMIZE, then there should be a "Blog" tab for you to drop down...

then a drop down menu gives you 2 choices:
1) show full post
2) show excerpt

I imagine it's on show excerpt right now, which is giving you the continue reading. So, just select "show full post"

Hope this helps!

I must have deleted something because I'm not doing a blog but what you suggested didn't work. I don't have a blog tab. Do you know how to get it back?

what did you do exactly and what did you delete?

what is your website?

Thank you Jimmy. I'm still looking for the drop down but I can't seem to find it. Is it on the main page or on the web page menu?

well, I deleted the whole thing thinking I deleted the part about blog. I don't think I actually ever saw it.. Now I was dumb enough to choose my own password and I didn't forget it, it just didn't work so I've been waiting hours for them to email the info to me. I'm going to have to go put in a ticket. So there is no website to look at I don't think. You can try. www.coffeeandcandles@siterubix.com thankss

I cannot find the blog tab anywhere. Maybe it's not on my template? Thanks Donna

what blog tab?

I'm not doing a blog site, but more of an affiliate site. That's why I don't want that there. But I understand why it's there. I just don't need it. It looks out of place. Any ideas?

Mine is an affiliate site too. A post is the same thing as a blog, hence the name blog post, and all posts/blogs you create are displayed on your home page by default like on my website. But you can get rid of that box by doing what Jimmy (blairdc) said above.

ok - I'll try again. Thanks!

to the affiliates who want to see your website when all I have is a header and the item names? I have no pictures because I can't take them from the website


http://www.myjoyfilledlife.com/2014/09/10/everything-need-start-living-healthy/
Hi Jilly, I found a VERY fine example for anyone who cares to look.
I was impressed when I looked at it this morning. Jon

Yes, that's a great way to get the site in there. This site looks like it could be the town i grew up in, Mt Joy is 5 min from where I live. How are you? I'm a mess with this blog. It has light blue lines throughout the pages and when I try to type on the front page, it only types a little and it makes a blue box and it says read more, I can't figure out how to get this away. All I found was a HUGE code to write somewhere but I don't know where. I'm ready to switch templates

Hi Jilly, I'm not advertising for that site, I just saw the owner of it on G+, A Christian woman who impressed me, & thought that I'd share it as possible help for anyone who cared to look.
Thank You for asking, I'm doing fine Jilly. Have you asked for help from any of the veteran members yet? Ok If you switch templates, make sure to look at the demo & the ratings at the bottom of the demo, That will save you trouble later on. Look for 4.8 or better 5 is best & about resolved issues. Jon

Hi, Jilly, Mine is as well. and what I do is write about the topic, or write a review of the product, and then link to the product. Here is an example. My home page is www.mydoggiedoodle.com. Here is the link to one of my posts: http://mydoggiedoodle.com/best-treats-dogs/soft-chewy-dog-treats/
Not that I'm an expert! Hope this helps!

I'm confused what you do with affiliates. I'm selling candles - do I just add a pic from their website and will it just direct them to their website?

make sure you get your affiliate link so when it redirects them to the site you get credit for it

Thanks I just got a letter saying I can use Amazon now while my application is being approved, I can link to their site on the products I want.

You need to apply to be an affiliate. Once you do, some will give you access right away, such as AMAZON, they go back and look at your site and give you a final yea or nay. But they give you access right away so you can get everything you need from your affiliate page there.

does your site have to be .com or .org?

I don't think so. They will eventually go in and review your site and then send you an official approval or rejection, but it took them a month to do that with me.

I've just reached the point of applying for affiliate programs now (Course 3, Lesson 2). I blog about healthy eating so I'm applying to be able to put affiliate links to vendors whose products match well with what I'm blogging about.

It was just a general question I had been curious to the answer. I wanted to know how it worked, I'm still behind that - I'm setting up the basics of my website.

Do you actually sell candles? Then if so, you don't need affiliates if you're into e-commerce. Unless you blog about candles, then you can apply as an affiliate with companies that sell candles and offer affiliate programs. It's only when you are approved as an affiliate do you get links and banners from these affiliate groups.

Yes I knew you had to be approved. I tested a lot of candless to decide which ones I wanted to apply for an affiliate with. Thanks!

Hi Donna, you could check out this training by Kyle, I think that will help you.https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/online-entrepreneur-certification-making-money-level-3/the-affiliate-model

yes I'm going to do that, thanks.

Some have links or ads you can put on your page. With some affiliates, I write a blog or review and then add the link to there site within the content I am writing about. So the topic your writing about should be relevant to the affiliate in the page link.
Kim

Great perspective - i wasn't thinking of going that way at all.

Every little link to an affiliate can create great success I believe, especially for my niche with the wide variety of relevant topics with computers.
Good luck.
Kim

thanks!

thanks, I'm getting some links to use once I finish my website. Almost there.

Sounds great! :)

Steve's right. You have to apply for the respective affiliate program or you won't get the commission. Don't get upset if you get turned down at first. I've been turned down by many, but accepted by some, too. They like to see sites with lots of content. For candles, type into Google Yankee Candle Affiliate Program and see what you get. Replace Yankee Candle with any other source you like that sells candles. Good Luck, Jill!

you will want to direct people to their sites through an affiliate link. Be sure to apply for affiliate programs first and get the links that will earn you a commission :)

I missed how you do this.

Jill, Carla's suggestion is very good. Inch by inch. If you get ahead of yourself it will cost you time and effort. I can vouch for that!
Harold

Wishing you success with that.

Try not to skip any trainings, K? Plus, you can type anything into the top search box and you will get lots of training and advice. Here's Kyle's training on the subject: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/wa-affiliate-bootcamp-giving-your-site-social-value-phase-3/adding-google-analytics-to-your-site

Good Luck!

how do you get in to Kyle's training without having to go back to the beginning?

I have actually found three different video's. Unfortunately they don' help me with my problem.

and thanks Carla!

Well, one way is you can type what you're looking for in the box up top that says "Need help [yourname]?" I always look for the trainings by Kyle, but there are many many more. OR you can click on "Certification Courses" in the left sidebar menu. You'll see where you are and if you follow the levels, you can get back. Hope this helps!

You're welcome.

Nice job Carla!

I don't know how to use it - to rearrange pages, get the sample stuff off the pages to make it my own

I have a lot of blogs on WordPress that may help you, just click on my profile
You will have to learn WordPress as you go don't forget their are over a million videos on u tube on WordPress that's how I learned it

Barry

thanks Barry. I always forget about youtube - I usually only listen to music there.

Type WordPress 101 into the top search bar and you will find a good set of tutorials.
Leo also has some good ones under the term WordPress Dashboard.

Thanks! I tried typing different words in there but couldn't find what I needed. I would never thought of WP 101. Donn

thanks for the info Labman, I really need this too. I have just been winging it hit or miss.LOL

To rearrange the pages you go to Appearance - Menu. There will be a box to the left and then a skeleton menu to the right with the name of each page in its own little box. If the page you want isn't already on the right hand side you can check it and Add to Menu. Then on the right hand side you can drag and drop the boxes where you want them. Move them up and down to reorder, or pull them a little to the right to make them a submenu of the item above. If you need help let me know. I've been there, WP was new to me too and it can be frustrating and confusing to figure out sometimes.

The fact that you can blog here, means you can learn and you can do it. Start from the very start. Certificate I. Jeremy has given you the link. Take your time. All the best.

Yes, I've done the certification - maybe I'll go back and do it again. Thanks, Donna

This is a great place to start. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/online-entrepreneur-certification-getting-started-level-1 Or you can just click the " get started here " button on the left side menu.

I've read part of that but was mostly working on affiliate bootcamp and the certifictions. I'll have to go read more of Get Started.

Thanks Jeremy.. So far, what I've read isn't telling me specifically what I need to know. But I'll start tomorrow.
