I'm being inundated with these. Short of removing all my WordPress comment boxes on my blog entries, how can I stop this?

Blog notifications for the admin (like comment moderation, Likes, new subscriptions, etc) are sent to the email address at Settings -> General in the Dashboard.

Personal notifications (like comments on your post, subscription emails, and upgrade renewals) are sent to the email address at Users -> Personal Settings in the Dashboard.

When you register a username account you provide an email address that becomes your unique identifier and all blogs you register while logged in under it are registered to that same username account.

I want to create a submission form on my second blog, Breeliant Designs. I changed the general settings for this blog to use a different email address for admin purposes and I also changed the settings on the form itself to send responses to this email (but this keeps disappearing).

However, every time I test the form (the page is currently private because I am not ready to go live with it yet) the responses keep coming to the main email address associated with my account, which is linked to my main site for Alianne Donnelly. Am I missing a step or setting somewhere? How can I make the responses go where I need them?

Thank you! I may never have figured that out based on the "simple" instructions from WP Help. You saved me several more hours of frustration.

I always add anything that is done via shortcodes, such as the contact form, from within the HTML tab. That always seems to work where adding via the Visual tab in the editor doesn't always work.

I have exhausted every solution I can think of and am completely stumped. This should not be that complicated, Can anybody offer some suggestions on what I'm overlooking?

Click on the Insert/Edit image button in the editor (or press Alt+Shift+M) to bring up a form. Enter the picture information there, and it will be inserted into your blog post.

Did you try and put the code in while in "visual" or "HTML" mode (top right of the post writing window)?

#3 - type more text, highlight it using the mouse and then the link button should become active again. "It's not a bug - it's a feature"

#2-- I placed the code in the post but it did not work. Or is the editor something else? What do you mean editor?

#3-- I put a link to a blog in my post, then the link button greyed out, so I cannot put anymore links. Any remedies?

In the wordpress dashboard, goto your profile page and edit the URL there.

2. You can add and place pictures in your post in the editor while creating the post.

3. I don't understand. There is no such limits applied. You can have as many links as you want in your posts.

My blog is not linked to my name? Can anyone tell me how I link it?

Also how do you add the code for a picture to a post?

Last one for now, why is there only one link allowed per post?
