Patience Is a Virtue

    Yesterday, I finally figured out how to work with the new Wordpress theme that I purchased. For the past three days, I have been very disappointed; because I was asking for help from support and the author of the theme for my blog, but they weren’t cooperating. They replied once asking for my authorization login into my bluehost control panel and WP admin, so that they can do the job for me instead. I waited for two days but I didn’t hear from them, and they didn’t do anything about the installation. I was angry, and I almost blew up at them and directed my anger toward them; but I didn’t do it, because I believe that it is so unethical. Instead of thinking bad things toward them, I reversed the situation; I considered, that, maybe they were too busy that they could not do anything with my request.

    As a new user of the wordpress blogging platform, everything is new to me, and it’s difficult to understand the terms. Anyway, I installed the theme in my blog by myself. The theme instructions are as easy as cutting and eating a piece of cake. I followed the instructions accordingly and religiously. Right now, I am still learning all the features of the theme and trying to put them together.

    Hay naku manay, minsan ganyan yang mga author ng themes na ganyan. Ire-refer ka sa forum nila. Or matagal sumagot. But yes, you will learn slowly but before you know it, hasang-hasa ka na sa wordpress ;)

    Joanjoyce: Hi sis, I am using ftp uploader din, Sasha taught me about that. Pansit nga lang eh, isang pindot lang, ayun bagong bihis na ang blog natin.

    Sasha: Nakow manay, muntik ko ng isauli ang theme but I can’t, gustong gusto ko ang layout. Nag reply naman sila after I installed it. Sabi pa nya, “it seemed you don’t need my help”, he-he. Super easy lang pala ang installation, minsan kase, super advance ang mind ko at di ko namalayan ang ibang instruction. You have to follow in sequence talaga. I think there were 11 instructions, nabara ako sa #4 it’s because I didn’t follow the binary thing. I should set in Binary mode when I upload the ioncube.php.

    It is always such a pain to change the theme. I avoid doing it since it takes so much patience to do. Eventually I will have to do it though, hopefully I can remember your lesson and just work through it all.

    @ DAD TO TWO: I already know how to change the layout now but the theme that I bought is very complicated.

    @ LANIE: Lan, adto sa imong dashboard og pangitaa ang design. Click design then widget. Naa dayon kay makita tagdan option dito kung unsa nga widget ang ibutang. Kung txt or script, select the text widget of i-piskar dayon ang script nimo.

    hmm… hirap pala wordpress… just keep things simple. i find blogs with too much design too crowded. it’s your posts and pictures that are important.
