Thanks again!

There are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested.

I'll do it one by one to change the link myself then. Thanks!

I know the individual permalinks of articles could be changed, but I've imported more than 200 articles from my old blog, and all the permalinks were set as default. It's too tiring to change the permalink one by one, so what I was asking is is it possible to reset the permalink by using CSS and to make it like "%year%/%month%/%day%/%postid%".

Anyone can help on it? I've been trapped in it for months. A million thanks, really!

WordPress is a good and friendly system, so I decide to keep my blog here, but the hardship on the permalink is a nightmare to me. I've tried hard to find solutions, but I still can't get any satisfying answers. I need to know whether it's possible to set the permalink by using CSS if I'm writing on my blog on wordpress.com for free, or I have to spend some money to upgrade to do it.

Please share with me the solutions if there is. Thanks!

<p style="text-align: justify;" > and end with </p>

before, and it didn't seem to work. However, I tried it again and it did. I must have typed / coded it wrong!? Who knows.

I also couldn't find the "Full" justification button on the text editor bar, but I finally realized I had not fully expanded it. Now I see it (not sure why its not next to the others). Either way, I feel like a bone-head now....I was too close to the forest to see the trees.

Thank you very much for the help!!

That being said, justify is one of those tricky customizations where your results may not be exactly as you expect. Luckily, before you buy, you can Preview your CSS by going to Dashboard, Appearance, Custom Design. Try your CSS code for justify on several of your pages and look for unintended consequences like odd character spacing on short lines, etc.

For example, your code in your CSS would be something like

p {text-align: justify} to justify all of your paragraphs.

If you like your results, you can buy the custom design upgrade.

If you would like to be more specific and choose the paragraphs you want justified, you don't need the Custom Upgrade if you are willing to style each paragraph you want justified. To do so, use the text editor feature to use the inline style for justify. For example, start paragraphs that you want justified with <p style="text-align: justify;" > and end with </p>.

All I have is a free blog from WordPress.com. I have upgraded for domain mapping, but that is the only upgrade I have.

I was hoping to accomplish two things:

1. Find a way to make the text in my posts "Justified" (instead of aligned to the left), and
2. I think the only way to accomplish this "justified" feature is to change my CSS code. However, am I correct in the assumption that one can only change their CSS if they have upgraded to a Premium Theme? (In other words, I can't change my CSS, and therefore I can't "justify" my text!?).

Thanks

You can read about the program and apply at http://wordads.co/

I want to see the overall effect before I post too much content.

Ads are displayed occasionally and only on some blogs at any given point in time so there is no way to help you with this.

can I upload youtube clips and other video clips?

Yes. See here for the videos that are supported > http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/ and http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/flickr-video/

or do I need to pay extra for the 'VideoPress' features?

You can upload your own videos to youtube then you don't need videopress.

Examples of ads see > This is the homepage for the WordAds program: http://www.wordads.co/

One extra dot just ruins it all....LOL

Thanks again. I hope this helps clarify it for others wondering the same thing.
