Hi my WA partners. I have a category (visible to visitors) that is misspelled and I would like to remove it from the Category List - since I already created a new one with

Just the help I was looking for. Thanks

Thank you, yes this is a good post for the new members overall. It's actually pretty simple that one would think.

So, putting it simple for Newbies: To Create & DELETE categories just do it in DASHBOARD==> POST==> CATEGORIES, then hover over (as Ursula said) the category's name and the DELETE option will appear in Red , then, just click delete and that's it !

If you need any help please let me know, It will be my pleasureto help you sincerely - I'm only a PM away ;) Olivia

I think you are well covered here.

I just checked my own site, its uncategorized, and I'm a bit new still at changing things.
However, the menu items all have that redletter "dlete" option, don't named categories have that as well?

Yeah, that should had work for sure!
But, I don't understand why is it necessary to make a new category. I think it is possible to change the category name and category link directly (that way you don't have to select the category manually from each post again). Isn't it?
Cheers, Juan

I didn't have an answer to your question, but I do want to encourage to keep going forward, ask for help when you need it, and you will be successful.

Thank you Allan, how lovely of you.

Feel free to ask for anything if you ever need please. I am only one PM away ;)

I was looking for that one. Thank you Ursulla, I will try it right away and will let you know ;)

In your dashboard, where you created categories (post -->categories) you can see the list of your categories and if you hover over the one you want to delete the red text DELETE is going to show up) screenshot: http://take.ms/8dtJV

Awesome, that was pretty quick ;) I was hovering over in the regular list, not in the creation of categories section.
Thank you so very much, and have a lovely day!

I am glad you sorted it out. I wish you a lovely day too.

Thank you!

Hi Olivia, If you have a specific issue with MacBook just write me PM. I use it for many months add know most problems. Now I use W10 on HP comp.

Wojtek

Thank you very much for your kindness Wojtek. I will have you in mind just in case. I did fix it, it was very difficult but I got it running again.
Im here to help as well dear.

I have a Macbook Air and have no problems with WP. I don't like Word in Mac anyway I think there are glitches with that programme but I write directly into WP and it's fine. The videos I had to watch in SD because of sound difficulties.

Thanks dear. Yes Word and Mac don't work properly so I use Pages and have better results.

Thanks for caring and contact me if you ever need anything please!

Hi,
I have a MacBook Air that is only 6 months old and I have no issues with using WA or WP and I use both almost every day.
Sometimes I find Firefox better than Safari but Safari works but I like Firefox better.
You should not copy and paste from word into WP as you will get all the extra Code. You would be better writing in a simple text editor then format your text in WP. Although the latest version of WP does support some codes for formatting but have not tried them with copy and paste yet.

PS. The copy and paste from word is from what other experienced users have said I personally have not confirmed it. :)

I opened a Mac book too. The older version and it is roughly about 3 to 4 years, this Mac book is a bit clunky for me in terms of weight and size. It is the white color Mac that comes with a CD ROM.

I have upgraded my OS to El Capitan, and I am using Safari to use WA system and Worfpress for post publishing, and so far so good.

Could it be due to the browser issue, have you tried using Chrome?

If you are typing a long post , I would suggest periodically do a manual 'save' . This will help you to have the previous copy of what you written and not losing all of them.

John.

Hi Johny,
Thank you for the reply. yes Now I'm using Word to write my content, then I copy/paste but if I'm not fast enough...the pasted info would go away too not always only a few times. So, even the saved stuff just goes.
I will try Chrome as you suggest, but my question is: why this problem is only in WA & WP and not all the other programs I use mmmm

I'll let you all know what Apple said again, but so far they think is WA.

When you do any VIDEO training are you able to see the letters perfectly? because in my Mac whether letters are zoom in or out...they just look like stains of black ink.

MaryESS is right, my phone and iPad also work perfect with WA but my Mac does not. And I use the same everything in my 3 Apple devices Phone, Pad and Laptop.

Thank you much again, let me know if I can help you with anything.


If word has so much problems which I would Microsoft product would generally have more bugs than others, why don't you give it ago on Page.

John

I am wondering how old you Mac is and if you have stayed current on updates? I ask about updates because some I've needed somehow elude me and everything messed up until I figured out I had forgotten the update. On the other hand, installed updates sure have messed things up for me too. I believe my Macbook Pro is coming up on 5 years old now. I had a major problem trying to install Privacy policy onto my site. Aside from that, I have had no problems yet and my 2yr old iPhone is able to to link to my WA dashboard.

Thanks Mary,

My Mac is a year old and its up to date. I will take it tomorrow to Apple to check it again.

I use other systems and business platforms and the only time I have problems is WHEN USING WA & WP. Isn't that weird?

I wish you -much success always Mary ;-)

I should have mentioned I use Safari too and that the only way I can get pix onto my site is to put them on my desktop first - why it's like that, who knows? When it comes to this tech stuff, I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Thank you for your input! And wishing you the very best too.

Hello
I think it will be better if you use the Notepad instead of Word, like this you can paste it without troubles, then you make your changes directly into your Dashboard.
Wish you all the best

Thanks for caring and for the advice Network16. I'm actually using Pages and it works. But still having issues with WP and WA in several things. Otherwise, everything is cool.
Have an awesome weekend full of fun ;-)

Same to you :)

Hello, I use Macs, two of them and phone, but never had any problems. Great products and fun to work with them:)

HI GORGEOUS,
HOW ARE YOU DOING? Nice to hear from you. Where was that pic taken?

I have used a Mac ever since I joined 2 months ago and have had no problems at all. I started with an old early 2008 macbook pro which burned out last night....and now I have a new MacBook Pro with no issues. It appears that even Kyle is using a Mac in the videos. Perhaps you should contact Kyle or Carson. I bet they have heard the complaint before.

Sorry that I can't help you but it seems strange. I will keep this in mind if I start having problems. I hope not. I do not want a Microsoft PC of any kind.

Congratulations for your new Mac, which one did you buy?PRO is the 14"? I want the white one with CD/dvd room but I don't know how that one works. Mine is the mini, the gray not the white big one.

Let me know if I can help you with anything as well, and thanks for caring sincerely.

I wish you the best in your new path to wealth and success!

Hi,
a MAC should not have any problem with Wordpress as long as you are just using it online in the browser.

If you would want to use Wordpress locally you would have to install MAMP:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_Locally_on_Your_Mac_With_MAMP.

How old is your laptop?
Is it up to date?
My guess is, that it is a software issue but that's hard to tell from afar.

To avoid losing your written pages, you could write them first in a office program and then just copy it into wordpress when you are done.

Cheers
Moritz

Hi MORITZ

My Mac is a year old and its up to date. I will take it tomorrow to Apple to check it again. But so far they think is WA platform because my 3 devices (phone, Pad and Lap) have the same programs and everything and no problem, only when I'm at WA and WP.

Thanks a lot Moritz,

I wish you -much success always MoritzS ;-)

Let me know if I can help you with anything as well.

PCs and Macs can both be very annoying.
Sometimes things just don't make sense.
I am having a completely different and unrelated problem at the moment.
Something that worked a few weeks ago, suddenly just doesn't work anymore, even though I didn't change anything.
(Has nothing to do with websites, so I don't go into details.)

I hope your problem can be solved. :)
Moritz

Thanks Moritz
(no details but id does happened to me too that something that worked fine a week ago,...it doesnt work today anymore without changing anything)

IS THAT THE SEA BEHIND YOU OR THE BLUE INFINITE OF THE MOUNTAINS? IT REMINDS ME THE CARIBBEAN WHERE I COME FROM.

NEVER MIND....THE BACKGROUND ARE MOUNTAINS LOL I SEE NOW ;-)

Funny enough that the problem I had with my PC just disappeared. Again, I didn't do anything to fix it... :D

The background in my profile picture is the Grand Canyon of the USA. :)

I live close to the Gran Canyon now, in Arizona. Well 1 1/2hr ;-)
All my pics I took in t grand canyon are red/yellow background.

Thanks again and good morning in Germany, good night in Phoenix, AZ
