Sorry to hear...
Well, 2 things...

2. I just copy/paste my images WITHOUT using Add Media. You could do that while you're waiting for Support.

How can I get my 'add media' icon to work again?

I can't access the 'Add Media' button to add photos to my content. This has always worked in the past When I press it now nothing happens. Do you know why this is please?

Ok Kyle, I will do. Thanks! I have been copying and pasting my images into the text in the meantime, but it will be more efficient to get the link working again!

This could be because a plugin/theme/wordpress needs an update. I would recommend that if you have any updates available within the WP-admin area that you perform them all. I was working with someone the other day with the exact issue and it was because there version of WP was not up to date along with their plugins/theme.

Hope this gets fixed!!!

Is it possible to change the font on my site title please? My theme is Twenty Twelve and the site title is very blocky so I would appreciate any tips you may have about changing th

Ok thanks Sarah, I'll have a think about that. :)

Ok no probs. Sounds a bit complex so I may just keep it as it is plus it has a lot of images already to make up for it! Cheers!

You can always change themes, they are tons of awesome themes out there and it doesn't change anything to your content. It took me several weeks to decide what theme I wanted to use
Good luck and have fun!

With twenty twelve theme, the only way to do this would be in the code of the stylesheet.css.
I've done this for global font before but not for the header, the process would be the same though.
If you do decide to do this, be careful, you can break your site if you mess up the code. Always back up your site first. You would be looking for "header" where my instructions say body.

I took a look at the twenty twelve theme and I think it might be too basic to change the fonts, I couldn't find any "theme options" other than customize, which only includes titles, background, header, etc.

Yes it possible to change it, depending on your wordpress theme. You should go to either "customize" or "theme options" within "appearance". Hope this makes sense lol

Hi guys, I've had my website up and running for a year and have got Google Analytics set up now. Unfortunately, it appears that I have never ever had a single visitor to my site! T

I take it you have made sure your tracking code is still there after wordpress SEO all in one updates

Yeah I have, thanks Katie!

Google Analytics can only look at info from when it was set up so it will not have known about the visitors from the past. It's like trying to count your visitors without a tracker to begin with.

No worries though. From here on out, you should be able to see how many visitors you get on your site.

Adrian

Thank God! Thank you! :) x

You're welcome! I made sure to answer you fast there because I know what that's like to not know especially after all that work you've done in the past year. :)

Keep it up!

Hi guys, I have a movie review site and I've just realized that when somebody does a search for a movie eg The Legacy Review 1978, it brings up the homepage of my site and not the

If you can give me your website link I'd be happy to take a look at it. It sounds like a simple fix.

Hi Karensplace, thanks for your reply! My site is www.besthorrordecades.com. Tbh most searches seem fine apart from The Legacy. If you search for 'The Legacy 1978 review' then my site comes up on the first page, but it's the homepage as opposed to the review. I'm not sure why this is the case. Any tips you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The title is: 'The Legacy - Movie Review (1978)'. Not too sure how I can change it from this? Also what do you mean by meta tags?

Not sure man, it could just be a fluke bug. If most of your others are working I wouldn't worry about it, sometimes that stuff just happens.
That being said, it might have something to do with the blogroll. Keep making posts so that review is knocked off the front page and maybe it will work correctly.

Yeah, I've added a new post to the main page now so I'll see how it gets on. Thanks!

Yeah, I have written around 40 reviews and most of them do come up correct, but occasionally if I type in eg 'The Legacy 1978 Review' into Google, instead of that page coming up as say number 12 on the Google search; it will bring up my home page instead. Obviously, if the searcher then clicks on this home page and sees that it doesn't contain the review that he's looking for; he will look at another site instead of searching for the appropriate review on my site. I was just wondering why this occurs and what I can do to correct it?

try changing your title of the post and adding the meta tags to it.
