There is a WordPress app for both Android and iPhone. Can these be used to edit our WA websites?
--Larry
The WordPress app is only for websites hosted at wordpress dot com. You'll use your normal browser to access your website from your mobile device.
Yes you can use the stock wordpress app to edit your site. However you wont be able to do it through WA. If you use the app it will directly log you into your site. Depends if you are bothered by using Site Content here in WA or not.
Hi Mark. I am not sure if I want to use the app or the full WA website yet, but you answered my question about whether it's possible or not. Thanks!
Hi Geoffrey. Thanks for the reply. My follow up question is: Are you using the WordPress app on the phone or are you just using the internet browser to access it just like with a laptop or PC? I am particularly interested whether or not we can build and edit WA websites with the phone app.
--Larry
Yes you would login to WA from a browser.
You can however, sometimes you need access a laptop too. Many users use mobile only.

I am looking to set up a rubix site to test and experiment with. I would like it to be a replica of my real site so I can see exactly how various changes would look on my real
DO not publish it, leave it in private mode. Using it this way is called a child theme and I recommend it but do not publish the site to the public and Google will not know it is even there. Then when you are ready to add any new content live, publish that on your live site
The test site can always be viewed in preview mode to give you a live look :)

Site Comments is a knockout feature. I have one question, though. When working with the comments, I can only find out the user's Gravater. How do I find the user's WA profile?<

I know that the usual method is to have the most recent blog on top, but information in my series of blogs tend to build on previous ones, so it makes more sense to read them ol
Word press posts are in reverse chronological order by default. I am not sure you can change that in the settings. May take some changing the code of your theme? That's a great question, Just not 100% on the answer. May take some research or hopefully you get a lot of comments for your question. Good luck.
Thanks for the quick replay Jeffrey. I think Zachary hit the nail on the head. I'll just make each post more independent of the others so the reading order is not critical.
I don't believe so (I could be wrong), but I wouldn't recommend it anyway. You want your returning users to be able to see your latest content right when they go to your homepage. It doesn't make sense that they'd have to go to the end of your blogroll to read your new content.
A good alternative for posts that directly build on another post (a part two) would be to put a link for the first post at the very beginning with a message like: "This is part _ of a _ part series. Click here to go to part one." However, I recommend making each post something that can stand on its own.

Thanks for the great information Zachary. What you says makes a lot of sense. Rather than spend a lot of time trying figure out how to change the basic behavior, I'll make sure each post stands on its own. You are wise beyond your years, sir. Much appreciated.

Is it possible to have blogs sequenced oldest to newest?
