Hi Billy.

Well, as you can tell… I’m not an expert. But, first off, you need to start a new post for each new question. As opposed to adding to this one. This topic was marked resolved a while back and for a completely different question.

To start a new blog you should be going to your host for support (especially if you already have a blog with them). They should be able to send you a new password. This is a forum for support in using the actual WordPress software. For example, I’m with BlueHost — you have to upload your blog software through your Cpanel with your hosting company.

You might want to have a read through this https://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html to learn more about the “right” way to use forums. Good luck!

Hi David and Jen.

David: That’s a good suggestion you’ve had about making the login work across the board. When a person is new this can all be very confusing, especially when the login screens look so similar. And these days we all have passwords and usernames coming out our yin/yang.

Jen: I hope you had your problem solved. (Sorry, I don’t know anything about Safari.) This whole thing did leave me questioning how supportive this forum is. Maybe I came on too strong in my explanation, but my intent was not to aggravate. It was coloured with frustration and Otto42 and Moshu clearly misinterpreted it — one of the disadvantages of online forums as opposed to speaking with a person. Having said that… I don’t agree with how they handled things. But I did learn from it though.

Hi.

Is anyone around today that is able to help me with this unresolved issue?

Thanks.

Hi Matt. Thanks for your supporting words.

There is no ongoing problem here except for your attitudes.

I figured this out for myself and thanked you for your support in my 3rd message.

I have never been more disappointed in a support service than by this one. The way you both have treated me here is completely unacceptable.

I didn’t see this option earlier but thankfully, I see it now. I’m marking this as resolved.

You are writing, so you must believe I can read.

This isn’t about who is right or who is wrong and it seems you are trying to make me wrong. I’m trying to get some support here.

I’m trying to learn and to understand how to work with WordPress, not learn how to read.

I would like to request that replies from this forum please be limited to discussion about the software and how to navigate, rather than directed towards me personally.

Thanks.

Obviously I can read. I can also learn too, with the right people to support and encourage me.

When I go to shadesofcrimson.com and try to log in under META (as per instructions that I read in another stream of questions), I am directed to WordPress to key in my username and password. Do you not see how that can be confusing?

This might be above my head right now, but I don’t intend to keep it there.

Thank you for your “support”.

Thanks, but I’m still in the dark.

When I try to log in to my www.remarpro.com blog I’m getting an incorrect username / password message. I did not get a password when I downloaded the www.remarpro.com software. (Who would have given me this info then to log into www.remarpro.com?) When I try to log into my new blog at www.remarpro.com a www.remarpro.com login menu comes up? How does that not show I am connected to www.remarpro.com?

When I use the “new” login info that is emailed from this log in menu experience it does not log me in. What is that info for then? It is in response to my request to log in?

I don’t understand about www.remarpro.com not connecting me to my self-hosted blog. My understanding was that www.remarpro.com was self-hosted and WordPress.com was independent.

This was from Question 2: In Codex, what is that “upload file” about then? I thought that was where the exported files from my wordpress.com blog would be uploaded. And if that is the case, how do I know what destination to pick?
