Learned something new WP.com

by allberry2001, posted in Businesses

Found one limit to using WordPress.com , it was very odd and this is more of a reminder for myself. The theme I was using had the option to add photos in between the text, I’m calling it in line photos.

The other option is just a header image, I posted a page on the blog 3 weeks ago with inline photos shared the page so friends could gawk at the cleavage. I check back on the page 3 weeks later and all the photos are gone. 

WP support says the “theme” I was using was the problem, but it worked when I created it…

I’m going to keep an eye on theme and options, WP.com will update whatever is needed themes and all with no notification, great for security not sure about design.

Lock screen

Just saw my computer start a defrag while on the lock screen, I didn’t know it would do this without being logged into a an account….

Domains and email

I think I have it all the way I want them for now , just waiting on one more to update over the next few hours. It been fun learning what different providers can do and what they are over charging for. You would be amazed as to what they think they can get away with.

Network Solutions is again the most expensive (  a reminder to self ) and if you burp while on they’re site I think they charge you for it. They have a nice “domain backorder” scam going on, I left the account and the domain in it just expire.

The ipage account is great for sites that don’t get a lot of traffic and in time they might get some new servers and a faster connection. The difference from the ipage site to WordPress site was 10ms,that’s a lot when there is high demand.

As for GoDaddy I’m still debating on staying, they do work with Microsoft Exchange well but its easy to edit the records in WP also.

Getting domain email seems to be the biggest pain in the ass ( meaning expensive ).

Exchange Server

So riddle me this Batman…I create an email address ( default ) with a “label” my name and the letter “P” within exchange for personal. Now when I go to send email from that account it’s showing “Eric Berry P”. Why do you do this to me Microsoft?

I go into the account and remove the letter “P” and test it and it’s still showing, I’m wondering if there is a lag time on the updating of the info.If it is a delay bad Microsoft for making the delay so long.This is a business product and should one not have this glitch and two should update faster.

Sent test emails to Gmail and it was almost instant, sent a test to outlook.com from an exchange server and I am still waiting…..
