I'm writing a piece on mafia and would love to add the video from this link:http://video.repubblica.it/edizione/palermo/i-ladri-dell-agenda-rossa-di-borsellino/128418/126917

I tried by following the instructions but it seems like it never uploads.

Please tell me what I can do!

thanks

Stanito

If you have four videos on YouTube, forget trying to upload them to your blog. Don't press ANY buttons to put the video on your blog. Just use the YouTube shortcode for WP.com which works like this:

[youtube=URL]

So, for instance, to get the video for the goat yodeling One Direction song in my latest post, http://raincoaster.com/2013/04/22/how-to-facebook/ I copied the URL of the video from the YouTube page, http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9beY3bvJmEU and I put it in that shortcode
`[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9beY3bvJmEU]

And poof, it just works.

If that's the case then you could recover the data from cached versions you loacte. However, it's a copy past job and you mentioned a couple of hundred of posts above. If you subscribed to your own blog's feed and it was a full feed and you kept the emailed copies your could copy and paste from them. Lastly, if you periodically used the export feature and kept the XML files as backups on your computer you could import them.

I've deleted a couple of hundred posts thinking I wanted to clean up my blog over a month ago (so my trash has been cleaned). Is it possible to do a bulk revert (akin to System Restore) or is that information lost forever?

I realise that posts that have been cleaned from the trash are permanently lost but I thought this question was a tad different.

can I somehow copy the entire template and context and make a new page out of it which would appear in russian(I could change the text manually)?

i.e header: | ABOUT US | CONTACT US | IN MEDIA | PRODUCTS | IN RUSSIAN

and when I click on "in russian", the same site would appear, but in russian. So it would be like.. site within a site but in other language, because the automatic translations really are bad.

Is there a possibility that a site viewer can switch between different languages. I mean, let's suppose my site is in english, but if a viewer from i.e russia comes then he could simply press the "in russian" button/feature or his country flag or whatever and the whole context on the site would turn into russian.
