In reply to: mac user needs help hunting down Headers already sent problemI had this problem earlier in a plugin. The fix is to remove all whitespace(blank lines) after the ?>
It’s a common problem.
Use a decent editor to sort it.

In reply to: Import from Bloggergodaddy hosting blocks secure ports so you can’t directly import from blogger if your WP blog is hosted with godaddy.
However one workaround is to open a wordpress.com blog, import to that from blogger, export to a WP export file and use that in your self hosted WP blog.

In reply to: My API Number isn’t there!You go to wordpress.com and create an account. You don’t need to blog there, but the wordpress API(a kind of back door to programmers) is hosted there so you need your key FROM there.
It’s free and once you have your key(make a note of it) you don’t need to ever return if you don’t want to.

In reply to: Work on a new theme without replacing current one?if you use the theme switcher plugin you can select from all available themes and only you see the changes. If you hide it somewhere on the page then your users won’t see it while you are working.

In reply to: Permalinks Not Working – 404 errorHi I tried your site and I saw the same issue, 404 when clicking a link.
I also host with godaddy and can’t see anythign there that might do it, I’m not all that technically savvy but it wouldn’t be a permissions thing would it? I’d have thought that’d give a 403 or even a WP-404 not a site made one.
Have you put a custom 404 page or set any strange exemptions in your hosting?

In reply to: Text Widget keeps disappearing!Hi, Which browser are you using? The text widget seems to be on your blog, empty, but there. (view the source or stick it in the xhtml validator it’ll give you 1 error (
<ul>
unfinished).)I wonder if some plugin is conflicting with the display of the text widget in the admin section.

I can write to all other(non-bannered) blogs fine.

In reply to: How-to unlink the parent pagesAll I can think of is removing the link in your theme files.
<li class="page_item page-item-3 current_page_item"><a href="https://skimdeep.net" title="Home">Home</a></li> <li class="page_item page-item-4"><a href="https://skimdeep.net/products/" title="Products">Products</a>
would become
<li class="page_item page-item-3 current_page_item"><a href="https://skimdeep.net" title="Home">Home</a></li> <li class="page_item page-item-4">Products
I imagine that’s easier said than done though as this is probably pulled from the DB table.
I tried un-publishing parent level pages but that removed them from the menu(along with the child pages)
Will be good to see the answer to this.
