Thank you so much. You were my inspiration for writing this training. You reminded me that others may be going through the same problem and may quit if they do not find an instant solution.
So I thank you for saying the right thing at the right time.
So as you see you needed a mention :)
Don't worry, I am here to stay :D

Thank you. If this helps just one person solve the same problem quicker than I did then I will be very happy.
Best wishes.
Yes, it is now. It took some time and a lot of learning, but everything is now good. I can now continue with the tutorials and work on creating posts again which this problem has prevented me from doing.
Thank you for asking.
I may have lost a bit of revenue and customers, but I am confident that I will soon be back up to speed.
Also, WA provides such great inspiration that it is difficult to give up. Lol :)
