There's really no good category for this question. I signed up to offer feedback to a particular site and my page closed accidently. When I went back to https://my.wealthyaffili

There should be a draft copy on WA somewhere - try a support ticket to see if they can help you find you draft. Glyn

Thanks, Glyn, I've put in a support ticket.

I've already tried (in Firefox) 'show history' and now just tried to 'restore closed tabs' but I can't get it back. The page isn't cached. I think someone has to manually "rewind it". :-) Thank you!

Look in your browser history and it will show you the pages that you visited recently.

In Chrome browser, click the little icon with three parallel lines in the top right of the screen.

Then you'll see 'Recent Tabs' . If you closed a Tab, you'll find it there and will be able to re-open the page again.

Or look further down and you'll see 'History'. Click there and you'll find the pages you have visited in the past days.

( Other browsers will have similar options )

In order to add at least one needed plugin, I'm trying to decide which ones I have installed that I can do without. I have a Contact form plugin installed but found a form build

Thanks for your vote of confidence, Glyn. :-) I just found this scoring system you refer to. And yes, I do have 100%. Didn't realize it was there, so thank you!

I also wouldn't worry too much about adding a plugin to do this. If you add it then check your website health under the WA website builder I'll bet you still get 100% score for number of plugins added. Glyn

Just use the contact form plugin as a sidebar widget. There should be an option for that. If not, use a contact form plugin that does have the option.

Don't worry too much about a small plugin slowing your site down. It isn't going to make any real difference.

But I don't always know what plugin is small. I could guess that the contact form probably is but others, not so sure. Interesting about the plugin having a widget option. But then, would a plugin used as a widget or a widget with html would lighter? (Ha!) Thanks!

I doubt you will find any site where people have written their own HTML code to make a contact form, rather than use a plugin which is what 99% of webmasters would do.

Keep it simple, use a plugin used by millions of other sites.

I wouldn't write my own, wouldn't know how. I can build a form from a template at a form-builder website and grab the code from it.

This is a very interesting question and one I want to sit in on. I would guess the widget would be the most efficient. looking forward to more responses.

Well, alright! ;-)

I've just set up an RSS feed with Feed Burner and going through the options you can set up with them. They ask if you prefer not to be indexed by search engines (and Yahoo Pipes

RSS is still relevant and I would go ahead and click the box.

Thank you!!!

:)

I think a podcast is an excellent idea if the user can download the podcast to listen to on the player of their choice. I am preparing to include both video and podcasts in my web site(s). People in areas where internet is unreliable will benefit greatly with pdf, pod, and video downloads.

As far as your question goes, I am not intelligent enough to answer if it will help or hinder by being indexed to the podcast site. I suspect Kyle or Carson is the best source for a difinitive answer.

A podcast would be great if you have a sound file on your site. An RSS feed would send your blog posts to the people who subscribe to it. I agree multimedia is a nice touch and would be something I'd consider but not right now. Still working on plain old blog posts. :-) Thanks!

My bad. I was responding in between tasks. For some reason I thought I was responding to multimedia. I hope I didn't respond off subject on another post too.

No problem! It would be funny though!

Feed burner is old school not too many people use it at least I do not use it. But it is up to you if you want to use it.

So you're saying RSS feeds in general are old school? Would you say they are completely obsolete?? Thanks for your response.

No, it still works it is just up to the people that want to use it. I just never really wanted to because it is old school. But then I could be wrong it might still be relevant.
Good luck Tommy

Ok, thanks. Guess I'll have to look into it more.

My theme (Make) defaults to a horizontal submenu. Is there a CSS code change I should do? A plugin?

I did it! I was dragging the submenus over to the right too much and not keeping them under each other, so they kept going to the right instead of dropping down (vertically).

Glad you resolved it. ~Jude

Me too, thanks for your input!

If your theme supports custom menus, you can use a custom menu widget to the sidebar.

Thanks Jude, but maybe I wasn't clear or maybe I don't understand. :-) I *can* create custom menus in my theme but I'm not referring to wanting the menu to be on the side.

I have my Main Menu in the center on top going across and I want the submenu to drop down vertically:

Main Menu (goes across ------->)
submenu (also going across ------>)

The submenu is not dropping down vertically which is what I want.
