The sub-domain http://mail.africanqueensproject.com/ already redirects to your Google Apps webmail. Is this what you wanted?

Thanks, but that I have done already. What I would like to do is instead of logging on to gmail.com I want to configure my e mail log in page to mail.africanqueensproject.com. which requires me to change the CNAME record through wordpress (where I purchased my domain from) which I am not sure how to go about. A step by step guide would be appreciated.

Hola a todos y todas,

Tenemos un problema con nuestro blog en concreto con las encuestas. Queremos hacer de ellas una herramienta no falsificable y que cada usuario pueda votar una sola vez.

¿Cómo podemos evitar la repetición del voto de una sola pregunta? ¿Existe alguna forma de pedir un registro para votar?

Or is there a way to disable Publicize totally?

Yes you can disconnect the app.

If you wish to you can use RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti for posting to Facebook walls. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify.

You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.

NOTE: The likes stats for Facebook shares and the Tweet stats apply to the original blog URL. They are gone.

As you charged the URL of the blog you need to disconnect the app and reconnect using the new URL if you want to use Publicize.

Yes I did change the URL. By removing the app do you mean removing the connection to Facebook then re-establishing it? Or is there a way to disable Publicize totally?

timethief on "Lost all my sharing stats - please help"

timethief — Thu, 16 May 2013 21:00:21 +0000

By changing the name of the blog do you mean that you chnage tghe URL starting with http:// by doing this? http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/
If that's the case then you need to remove the app and reconnect it to the correct URL.

I do use publicize but I didn't disconnect the app. It happened after I changed the name of the blog, but besides that I didn't do anything.

For some reason all of my stats in terms of facebook likes and tweets have been erased for every post. Can someone look into this for me? My url is http://leftandcenter.com. Thanks!

The only featured images in that theme are found in the home page slideshow. All other images are just plain images and not "featured images".

Modularity Lite — 950 950/600 double number = sidebar off / on
maximum displayed width for images in posts and pages > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/07/23/maximum-image-width/

Oh, I'm afraid that you misunderstood me. My bad...
I'm not talking about this kind of featured images. I'm talking about what kind of size should the featured image of posts and pages should be, so that when someone uses the search bar of my blog, they will appear at their full size, without any problem.

timethief — Sun, 12 May 2013 16:56:57 +0000

Please read the theme description found here:

The standout feature of Modularity Lite is its beautiful home page slideshow. Each photo in the slideshow will be a whopping 950 pixels by 425 pixels. ... http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/modularity-lite/

I've been using featured images for a while and everything seems to be working fine. These images appear on Facebook and Twitter and there is no problem at all.
But one day I decided to try to use the search bar of my own blog. The results were horrible. I was looking for a page that included a featured image, but it was way too big! It didn't fit there, so half of it wasn't even visible (look at the image below).
Now I want to re-upload all my pictures at a correct size, so that they can be featured images, without being way too big or way too small. But...what size should they be?
P.S. I use the Modularity Lite Theme.
P.S.2 I hope you can see this image: http://gunsnwar.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=2336

sixhours on "Theme colors have changed! Help!"

sixhours — Fri, 10 May 2013 15:09:32 +0000

Hmm, you may need to re-set the color for the "Footer Background & Borders" area in Custom Colors. Give that a try and I think the border colors and footer area will be fixed.

Thank you! All the frames of image and the background of my site is still pink, but those dots with date is showing black.

Howdy! It looks like this was a bug on our end. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! Your chosen colors should now appear instead of the theme's defaults.

mandiarmond on "domain mapping is not doing its job"

mandiarmond — Thu, 09 May 2013 17:55:51 +0000

I recently reset my DNS from a private, paid website (TherapySites) to WordPress. I've checked and it appears that the DNS are all pointing to WordPress, but is there anything else I need to change for the site to show up via WordPress? I know it can take 24-48 hours, but I just want to make sure I'm covering all bases.

The site is http://www.mandiarmond.com.

Thanks!

Mandi

This should help with your browser: http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/

Sometimes just forcing a page reload will also work

Sorry can't be much help with the router -

The big thing is that it takes time and until all the routers on the internet are updated and your IDP has cleared it's cache you will see erratic results - part of the erratic is that you never use the same route from your PC to your web site - it is the load balancing part of the internet that give you the erratic action

This is truly a time for patience since there is nothing else that you can do - every time I have moved a site and name servers it was very tough to wait -

to the best that I can see everything is set correctly and changes are marching around the world

I am not being rude auxclass, I am just simply worried. I don't mean to offend anyone though.

We have a growing number of followers and they read our blog. We are activists and we post news of current events. I hope you understand.

Can you tell me how I should be able to clear caches and flush router? Do I do this in my control panel of my website?

Please guide. Thank you for your early response.

auxclass — Thu, 09 May 2013 03:17:45 +0000

Rude demands are bad Karma

http://risebd.com/ loads fine for me - domain helper shows you have everything set correctly

The fine print you skipped is the part about taking 24 to 72 hours for changes to reach the far corners of the internet - due to caching issues you will be the last one to see the changes - try clearing your caches & flushing your router - changes usually start after a few hours -

PS - you got an answer here in about 10 minutes - most people would think that is good service

I am worried! I bought the "domain mapping" offer from wordpress.com and now after changing the name server as well as custom dns, my domain does not map. Nothing shows, neither my risebd.wordpress.com nor my http://www.risebd.com. This is ridiculous. I am pissed and I even gave an email to wordpresss support for which I got no response.

my blog: risebd.wordpress.com
my website (I mapped my blog to it): http://www.risebd.com

Why am I not getting support or solution which this purchase promised me. I need a response!

Hello! I cannot tell if my website is not properly loading because of my laptop (issue on my end) or if it is an issue with my site in general. Would someone please check it and see how it loads for them? I just installed a new theme this morning.

When I open my site in Internet Explorer, the theme looks all out of whack. When I open it in Mozilla, it looks like it should. I tried opening it on my iPhone (safari) and using Google Chrome, and those two look all jumbled and messed up as well.

I am using the Magazine Basic Theme: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/magazine-basic

My site is http://mudrunner.co
