i wanna switch back to blogger.

Posted on 5 December, 2007 | 5 Comments

ok, call me stupid, but

i can’t figure out wordpress. 
it’s just not very user-friendly yet, and i’m just trying to embed something simple, and you wouldn’t think i’d need to be a programmer to do it.

grr.r.

frustrated.

sorry.

    So sorry about your experience. I’ve been with WordPress almost two years now, and I love it. I’m not at all geeky, either. Plus I’m old. 🙂 69 year old grandmother.

    Stick with it. You’ll figure it out. Don’t neglect using the forum. They are very helpful and patient with beginners.

    Blessings and hope with Jesus Christ,

    I like WordPress too, even though I’m an off and on user. What r u trying to embed? And where? on a post, or on the sidebar? i always had trouble embedding stuff on the sidebar.

    When u write a new post, click on the “code” button underneath the title. U should be able to post code there for videos or photos or whatever.

    yeah, that’s what i was trying to do.
    it was a flash file…and when i went to my old blogger account to just *see* how easy it went over there, it was SIMPLE. but i couldn’t do it here. not in the sidebar..it was in a post.
    *sigh*
    oh! and the pictures i always have to resize them, which is another step that blogger doesn’t require….you can upload any size pic and click small, medium or large and upload…and voila.
    easy-peasy.
    but it will keep trying…and jer’s gonna do some upgrades for me when he gets a chance…
    🙂
