I am being denied access to my WP admin by WA server

thank you everybody at WA....as a group WE ROCK!

glad you sorted it out, had it happen to me and that was a plugin

Problem solved. It was a plug-in blocking access

Glad to hear it!

still showing 'forbidden'.....you should put URGENT!!! or something similar to your work ticket.....have you heard anything yet?

No

I just checked again and your website is down. Could be any number of reasons. Support ticket is the way to go in this instance. ~Jude

Thanks. That's what I did.

Please let us know what happens Simon.

Ok

Hi Jagger. Did you enter the correct password? BTW I clicked on your first website listed and it gave me this message: Forbidden. You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Do you think that could have something to do with it? Blessings

Ye s I dont know why my access is denied

Is this the website you are referring too: http://crosswellnessrecovery.com

Yes

Was this the first time this has happened. If so I think you should put in a support ticket.

Yes its the first time this has happened. I'll put the ticket in.

how do you increase the size of images on wordpress?

I found an excellent free photo editing site. Check out http://resizemypicture.com.

I normally use this , http://www.picresize.com/

Thanks I'll give it a try.

Russ this was very helpful. It explained some things I was doing wrong.

Hi, SimonJagger! Mackiejw just answered your question very well. That is exactly what I do and it works, it should work for you also.

I suggest you insert all images in "full size", then you can resize it by clicking on the "pencil" symbol to make it fit.

Why full size? When you insert, say thumb Nail size, your image may not show completely
John

That is really informative. Thanks mackiejw.

Mackiejw........do you find by uploading full size that it slows up your page? Do you think it best to re size prior to uploading?

I'll check if that makes a difference
John

You're right and that was a big part of my problem. Its easier to reduce than it is to enlarge at least that's how it seems for me. Also my site was hacked so I've got work to do.

Hi Simon, At my site, you click on the pencil on the picture, and then you can choose between thumbnail, medium, full size and costum size and their I can make it even bigger, greetings Loes

Thanks.

Your theme has recommended settings for your media, so as to not distort the pixels in the media coming through. You could try using a different site for a larger image, or you may be able to save in your media library and adjust the size manually.

That is apart of the problem. One thing is I think I need to download larger images. Thanks.

Hey Simon. What you need to do is go to the Media section in the admin area of your wordpress blog, then click on edit for the image you want to change the size for. Underneath the image you will see "edit image" again, click on that and you will be able to change the size there.

Just be aware if you enlarge the image and the resolution is low, your image will pixalate and wont be very clear. You want to avoid pixalation by making sure you images are large to begin with.

Hope that helps

Thanks hammer I appreciate the support.

My pleasure :)

Click on edit and just click on the image and when you see the little pencil in the top left corner, just drag the edges to the size you want. Don't forget to update.

Thanks.

Thanks for the support.

When you are in edit mode, just click on the image and you will see little white squares appear around the edge, you can click and drag on these to make you image larger or smaller

Thanks I tried thst but it would not save the enlargement.

My posts page needs a place to leave comments

I would check out Jaweda2k link for it is good training to help achieve this

The posts will have a comment section when you view the post. On the blog roll it removes this. This is why I advise to use the more option on the text tab to shorten the post on the roll and get your traffic to view the actual post. See this blog: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/jaweda2k/blog/using-the-more-button-to-add-a-read-more

I thought about doing the more button but found it removed my pictures, maybe I was not doing it right

If you want pictures on the Blog Roll, you either have to add the more option below the image on the text tab or in the lower right hand corner of WordPress there is an option to set a featured image that will show on the blog roll.

Jaweda2k you the man! thanks. You saved me much frustration and general gnashing of the teeth!

ok perhaps should use the featured image

I went through the same thing when I started with my second site. Could not figure it out for the life of me. Did searches and could not find an answer. Then I was directed to the answer when I asked in the live chat. After that I put together the blog to help others avoid the same frustrations I had gone through.

well I am sure there others who are grateful like me for you doing that, I will work it out took me a bit to work out the issue with my sitemap but got there after many thoughts of throwing my laptop out the window lol

affiliate links not working

Here's a good training on Amazon affiliate links, though it sounds like maybe you got this sorted already https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/amazon-links-adding-and-editing-your-amazon-links

new question - how do I add an amazon widget to my page?

Hey Simon. Login to your Amazon Associates account ( I usually do this by selecting on the earnings summary link). Then select Widgets. Choose the Widget style you prefer and follow process to add the products. Copy the HTML once you've saved and created the widget. Then either select Appearance, Widgets in your WP Dashboard and add the Widget as a Text box so that it appears on your website in general (all pages and posts) OR paste the HTML to a specific page or post in the Text tab anywhere you'd like it to be shown. Good Luck, Denise.

Ah Denise thanks a bunch. I was do frustrated by this dilemma.

You can either add Amazon Widgets to the sidebar using the provided code and a text widget on you appearance settings, or you can use an Amazon Plugin to add the ads just about anywhere based on keywords.

I appreciate the ti p YumaBloggers.

I gonna try Honest Girl advice also

If you're using an Amazon link, you only pick up the part that starts at the http: and go to the end of your affiliate name which ends in =20. Took me awhile to learn this. The entire link they gave me doesn't work.

thanks carlalives, that's what i needed

You're welcome!

Undo them then try again, make sure you select the right code, copy and paste where you want them then update.. go check them out see if they are ok you cannot check them from the edit page until you either save them or update

thanks it worked! saved me great frustration CarlaIves and KatieMac!

If your affiliate links are not working, Simon, it must be a problem with how you entered the URL link with your software. We don't know what software you are using, but I would suggest you try your software help menu under "URL Links" to see if you are entering the URL's properly. Remember also that your completed page may need be uploaded before your links will work properly.

You are having trouble creating a link?, or getting links to send people where you want them to go?
