I like to follow the ambassadors. I do already for many of them. But as I check out the list, it tells me stuff about the, rank, days as ambassor and their membership. But ho

There is now shortcut to quickly discovering which of the Ambassador you are or are not following, Shirley... providing you're referring to the view shown in my screen print below...

Hope you find this helpful.

Hi Shirley,

Click on their profile and the top left will have a button that says Following or Follow.

Regards,
Jay

Thank you but I have been doing that to check but I wish the list would show me which ones I follow wo having to click and check each individual profile.

I have several browsers installed on my PC, including Chrome, Wave, and Edge. Which brower do you work in mostly when creating and editing your blogsite? I'm curious

Hi Shirley.

I love Firefox and use it for previewing, but I have to use Chrome simply because the majority of my visitors use that. So, I have to make sure everything looks ok there 🤷

Chrome

Hey Shirley,

I prefer Firefox is what I use to create pages.

But I also have and have used Opera, Brave... and even the odd time Microsoft's Edge for previewing in other browsers.

Won't allow Chrome on my business computer and don't even use it on my tablet.

firefox - and epic or brave for a cookie free experience...( testing websites)

I need to know if you can create subfolders in your image library. I'm creating gallery images and i want to upload them to be in a group, not mixed in with the other images.

Hey Shirley,

This is why I prefer to use DuckDuckGo when searching for quality help online. See screen print below...

Hope you find this helpful.

Thank you so
Much. I’m going to do this.

Is there an easy way to change a page into a post wo having to copy and paste all the content?

Page Switcher does a great job. I have used it several times.
Jerry

I use Page Type Switcher every day. It works.
;-)
Richard

You can use the post type switcher plugin Sandra which is easy to set up and once done quick click can swap it around or the other way as well Once done you can then de activate and delete the plugin
Andre

I did use it and it worked partly but I lost the page I wanted to be a post. The post I wanted to be a page worked. I did manage to get the lost one back finally by looking in my browser history so I copied the text and created a new post. The plugin noted it had not been tested with my version of Wordpress. Anyway I’m happy now. My problem was I had a page I wanted to be a post and a post I wanted to be a page.

Yea the plugin does both but at least it is sorted now which is good to hear.
Enjoy your week ahead.

Andre

Ok folks I found this video by Eric that answers this. Thanks Eric.

Glad it worked out.
