Hi guys, anyone here good at coding? I'm using the plugin Corner stone to organize my posts into sections.

Viola, I have never used codes for my featured image.

At your post or page editor, look towards the right side columns. You'll see Categories, Publish, Tag and then Featured Image. Try that instead and see if it works like how you wanted.

What theme are you using. Most themes have a place on page you edit your post to add a feature image. The image has to be 150 x 150 or smaller for most themes. Look on the right towards the bottom. No code needed.

Hi guys, I am trying to add an amazon pic to my post. On amazon's website, it has a HTML for Image Only. It says "Highlight and copy the HTML below, then paste it into the code

Did you sort this out...you should paste the code when in the text mode not visual, when you go back you will see a grey shaded box, you have to do a preview to see the actual image. :))

Someone gave me this tip. Where you want your image to be within your content put 4 xxxx......Then go to the text tab where you see all the code. Look for the 4 xxxx, paste your Amazon html code where the 4 xxxx are. :)

Thanks Kathy, I'm going to give that a try. Great tip! :)

I think it was Davyrobot that gave me the tip!

I will try it! Thanks Kathy!

Let me know if it works. :)

Do you have an ad blocker turned on? If you do, Viola, you won't see it until you turn it off. And make sure you are pasting into the text tab.

Hi Carla, I just saw your message above. I am having great trouble pasting Amazon code into my post. I don't have any problems with the other affiliate companies that I have joined.

Should I still check to see setup to see if I have an ad blocker turned on? Would I find this under "settings" on my laptop?

I have wasted so much time on this. It's crazy. Amazon told me to the Link Builder plugin but again, when I went to copy and paste the Access Key and Secret Access Key I couldn't paste.

Sue :)

If you've done it right, it will show a blank where the image should be. Go to your website, refresh if you need to, and it should be there. Michelle

are you pasting it under the text tab and not the visual tab where you type your content?

I don't like that when I'm on a page like my homepage, It has 3 full posts. I am trying to make it so that you only see the title, the picture and a bit of the article. Then you

I see! Thanks everyone!

Hi Viola, do you mean something like that;
http://timerichworryfree.com/

Go to editor > look at the top bar > select "insert read more tag" (looks something like --- ) at the end of the paragraph that you wish to preview.

You should get it.

Hi Viola - this could have something to do with theme you've chosen and to get the effect you're looking for you might need to change. I use the 'Spacious' theme which shows a photo and only a snippet of text for each blog. It might help if you ask this question but mention the name of your theme too as there might be a way round it? Hope this helps :)

Go to dashboard, settings, reading settings and then it says two options full text and summary take the summary save changes.

Hey guys,

I just installed the mailchimp plugin and it connects but I get the error message:

"Uh-oh, you don't have any lists defined! Please visit

I realize this is an old question, but what did you finally decide to do? I am currently studying MailChimp and finding it pretty complicated.

I have read that Aweber is much easier to use but it is only free the first month whereas MailChump is free for up to 2000 list members and 12000 emails per month.

Plus, you should read MailChump's Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy. They really don't like the work at home industry and many others.

I have no idea but I am sure you will get the answer and get it working. All the best.

Viola, Not sure if this will help or not, but after seeing your worry, I asked about MailChimp, and 1 person gave some interesting info. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/apina/blog/why-mailchimp-sucks Maybe this will help you decide if you really want to stick with Mailchimp. Hope this helps some. Good Luck!
