Getting Started

I have been seeing this "Background updates are not working as expected" message on my WP Site Health in most of my sites lately. Any ways to fix it?
Thanks!

Hey Oren,

Never having seen this prompt myself, here's what I would do (and did to help you here)... I would search using DuckDuckGo(dot)com... see screen print here...

Once I have my search results, I would read through several of these posts and/or forum discussions to see if there is a simple fix... then make sure that SiteSupport backs up your website BEFORE you begin making changes.

This way, if you mess up making ANY changes, SiteSupport can readily restore your site with the backed up copy.

Hope you find this helpful.

Thanks Triblu!
I've already done internet research on it. I was posting it here to see if there are any WA-specific steps for resolving the issue and if any others have experienced the same.
I'll probably just open a ticket with SiteSupport.

Yes, reaching out to SiteSupport is a very good idea, Oren.

WA Affiliate Program

Need to update my payment (PayPal) email - it points to an old email that I have shut down.

if you click on your profile image and scroll down to account settings
then goto subscriptions you can change the email associated with paypal...
the other place to remember is within the payout if you get referrals ....
click on the dollar symbol in the top menu>> my stats
and scroll right down the bottom - there is the payment email for paypal...

I did just that - that did not work. I have a SiteSupport ticket open on the issue now.
Thank you for your help, though!

sitesupport are for hosting issues with your websites only ...
any platform issues should go ot kyle or carson....
how go you know it did not work...
did you press ctrl+f5 to refresh the cache for that page...

I was getting an error message advising me to contact SiteSupport.
This is fixed now. SiteSupport resolved the issue.
Thanks for you help!

glad you are sorted...

I have an old email still in the system for my PayPal payment address - I need to update it
Thank you!

To change it, go directly to the link below. Scroll all the way down, and you'll see Payment Settings. You can update there.

Unfortunately, that is not working - I get this message:
"Please contact SiteSupport to change your Paypal address"

As far as I know, support only handles website-related stuff. For payment, you'll want to PM Kyle.

Hey Oren,

Here are 2 pages of the same tutorial to assist you: Hope you find this helpful.

Here is what I do:

Once I select and insert the image where I want it in the post,I go back to the file page and click "use this file" and box will display as in the image below

I then copy the text in the highlighted box and in the edit for the image, paste it into the "image title attribute box and update and done. Hope this helps.

Cheers, Brad
