I am redoing my website. Before….my website http://www.myscrapmenagerie.com went straight to WordPress when you typed that URL in. Now I want a website with a link to my blog. I moved the WordPress files into a folder called /here. When I look at my blog, some of the posts show broken links to the pictures. I don’t know why. You can see an example on this page:
http://myscrapmenagerie.com/here/2014/03/load214-day-10/

When I try to upload a new image, it shows as a broken link. When I go into edit, then Edit Image, I can see it. So what is going on??? I need these images to work! I am applying for something, and they need to see my blog! HELP!

http://www.myscrapmenagerie.com/ is not hosted by WordPress.com. myscrapmenagerie.com is hosted by GoDaddy.com

We provide support only for blogs being hosted WordPress.COM and not for WordPress.ORG software installs. You are posting to the wrong support forum.

WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and different http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

I’m confused…when I sign in to WordPress I type http://www.myscrapmenagerie.com/here/wp-admin. Then I used my username and password that works on WordPress.com. I can get in. But if I go to Support on WordPress.org, I can’t use that username and password…it doesn’t exist. That’s why I thought I’m using WordPress.com. Can you help me understand? I’m a bit confused about this.

You definitely have a wordpress.ORG software install hosted by Godaddy. You were not required to create a WordPress.ORG account previously just to setup the Godaddy site but now you need to register one.

If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.
