Hey W.A. Today has been a whirlwind of unexpected events. I've had to deal with all of it financially and am going to have to keep my expenses to a very bare minimum th

Sorry that has happened to you. If you do have your own domain site - then you have 30 days to move it to other hosting. There are some instructions on how you can do that. You can't downgrade from Premium to starter membership, but you could tell Kyle or Carson what has happened and then open up a new starter membership with a different name.

Good luck to you.

Thank you very much!! Do you have any idea where I can find the information on switching my hosting? I'm hoping to make things work so I can stay but just in case... I always want to be as prepared as possible.

You can drop down to the starter membership which will allow you to host 2 sites. When you in a better financial situation just request an upgrade.

Your site will stay active for a period of time . I am sure if you know you can make it back within say a couple months K&C will keep your site up and active. You will still be able to sign into your site and work on it, just not sign into WA.

This is if you are talking about a site you own, like a .com. If you are talking about a rubix site I am not sure what happens with those. Hope that helps :)

Hey Shawn, thanks for the information!! Greatly appreciated.

Not sure but I think I read somewhere that you can park your site at the registrar where you bought the domain.

Hey there Laura... sure hate to see ya' have to take a step back. I still revisit the old haunts occasionally when need be. I did a mad dash for about 4 or 5 months doing surveys at CashCrate and others. Also did click work at Clickworkers and paid posting at Paid Forum Posting and Post Loop. And my old standby, cleaning out the garage and selling on eBay. Like I said, I did all of these for 4 or 5 months until I could afford the annual payment for WA. Don't know if you have time for any of those but all I can say is that it worked. I can get ya' all the links if you're interested.

Hi Randy,

I'd love to have the links to those! I'm going to look up some of them in the mean time and see what I can find out.

Thanks!
Lauren

Hope something can be figured out.

Thanks for your kind words!

So sorry to hear this. If only we could speed up the process of actually making the money to cover it even.. Can Kyle and Carson not come up with a commission share site for us to use while were learning? KYLE CARSON - can you hear us please :-) We need your help here xx

Maria

:) thanks Maria. Happy new year!

Is there anything you can sell in order to keep your membership? I've sold clothing, toys, videos and jewelry to cover my monthly fee. Good luck to you.

Is there a way to down grade back to the free one to still keep up with the training & switch your domain to the free one for now May be flick a message to Kyle or Carson, if no one can help you we your question.

So sorry to hear that. I am not particularly sure about the answer to your question regarding your website because I have it hosted with another company. Best of luck to you and hope you can come back soon.

Thanks Mel, me too.

Hey all, I just barely updated my home title and home description in my All in One SEO. I just tried searching my site on Google but it's not changed. Do you know generally how

took about 3 days for mine.

Yeah... I've seen as few as a day but the norm is more like a week I think.

Thanks! :)

It varies depending on your keywords and overall ranking. It seems to take a week or so for new sites.

Thank you and happy new year!

I'm trying to figure out how to do multiple posts under my menu pages, like this website:

You can do this on your blog by just using the more feature.

Thank you for your help!! I'll check that out and see if I can figure it out.

I will be putting out a training on this later today. :)

You're the best!! I look forward to it. Thanks! :)

Hey, thanks for putting up that training! I looked through it and it's definitely very helpful, but it different than what I need help with. I guess what I mean is that I want to figure out how (if even possible) to add different posts under each of my menu pages. For example, one of my menu pages is "Benefits of Medical Marijuana". I want to be able to add different posts under this page because I'm not going to be able to cover everything in one post. Is this even possible to add more than one post under one menu page? Or should I just do one post under that page, and do the rest of my posts under my home page?

Sorry for the confusion. I hope this makes better sense.

yes it is possible. You will need to buy a theme that has that feature. Talk to Craig, (Labman ) He can help you there. :)

Thank you thank you!! You've been a huge help :)

I think he means how multiple pages are post pages. I would like to know how to do that too.

I'm going to try out the suggestions that the other members have told me about. I'll let you know how to do it once I've got it!

I figured it out. you can set your post categories as a page when u customize a menu

Here's a training that covers it... https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/creating-custom-menus-in-wordpress

It talks about how to add a category to your menu. So when someone clicks that menu item, it displays all blog posts that have that category assigned. That is how the website you referenced above is doing it.

Hope this helps!

Thank you very much! I'll check out the video. Have a good one!

You need to have a blog menu for the that, you go to setting then click reading http://d.pr/i/sXzF and tick the box that it says" your latest posts" then update and your set to go

Thanks a bunch!! You guys are great.

It looks like they made their menu items link to post categories. If you hover over a menu item on that site, look at the URL at the bottom of your screen and you'll see what I mean. Somewhere Leo has a training video about how to create custom menu items. I'll see if I can find that.
