I found that my web host Yahoo restricted many of the plugins and widgets available for WordPress. I never thought much about it until I tried to schedule several posts over Thanksgiving. I wrote them, scheduled them for later and ... they dissapeared!

Christine tried to help me but couldn't. My son told me that Yahoo restricts a file called cron.php and that was the root of the problem. I switched hosts over this weekend and am now tidying up the loose ends.

Be ware that if you purchased your domain name from your host, they may opt to drop you if you drop them. Meaning, they may no longer notify you that your domain is up for renewal. Make sure to check into that so you can get your new host to take on that job.

Brianna,

Good to see a this WordPress thread. Have both wordpress.com and wordpress.org sites up. The wordpress.com was started until I had the time to attach the wordpress.org (hosted one) to my website--which was really easy. In any event, I post to both and they are connected to various other social media sites that I use.

Thanks for the info about which one is involved in search engine rankings. That's very helpful. Hopefully, I understood you correctly :-)

I'm going to keep plugging away with both of these sites. In due time, they will both have different topics. Right now, the same info is one both blogs, hoping that someone will see the info I post.

Hopefully, I can contribute something along the way.

Thanks again for doing this.
