WordPress & Me

Sore Finger Tips

After a couple weeks of disappointment with the knowledge I’ve forgotten over the last 10-11 years I finally gave up on trying to use HTML and went with the blocks style of build. I am not satisfied with the overall way this works but until I can re-learn HTML I will stick with this one.

I really liked the old style of doing things on WordPress and use the classic view whenever possible on my editing but it doesn’t always give me the option of doing so and the results show if only to me. Years ago WordPress used to let me get plug-ins to enhance my site but alas now it is only offered in plans of $40 a month or more.

Double Dip

I live on a meager SS amount every month and can’t justify spending that kind of money on a hobby . The support offered with my free site quickly showed me I needed to upgrade 2X to the Explorer package to unlock options like finding a variety of themes to use. Want plug-ins, or other goodies to make your site easy and more functional? Upgrade again.

I have contacted Support twice while trying to get my site up and running and both times they were prompt in replying but gave no help or info in what I needed to do to get my site as needed. I find this extra perk in the Starter plan most useless. So as I try and bring this site to life forgive me as I will struggle into the vast area of site blocks stumbling and rebuilding until I get it right.

until next time-
