  • Related question about Sharedaddy; On my site, I use the Simple Image Widget to link to our affiliates. When someone reads a post on my site and clicks the “Like” button for Facebook, the link created on his Facebook page includes an image file from one of my Simple Images and it’s not appropriate to the post he’s “Liking”. Is there a way to default the attached image to another one in my media library?
    the site is: https://www.lastnoteband.com
    Thanks for anyone who can help!

    Chip,
    I believe this to be true, but some themes don’t show the feature. On most of the themes I’ve used, in the edit area of both pages and posts, there’s a check box below that says: “allow comments”. On the two themes mentioned, this is not present.
    While searching other threads, I found a simple solution which works well. Once a page or two has been created, I went to the dashboard and selected “pages”. From there I selected them all and used bulk actions/edit and found a selection for allowing or disallowing comments. I simply disallowed them this way and everything’s perfect. I hope others will find this helpful!

    Thank you esmi and Rev. Voodoo.
    Rev. Voodoo, I think you said it all in your first sentence. In regards to your final statement, I agree. However, I consider myself a reasonable intelligent person. Prior to building my first website, I spent about two weeks of nights and weekends studying several options, but focusing primarily on the www.remarpro.com option. I read thousands of posts from the support forums. I read all the literature I could find on www.remarpro.com. I can’t say I understood much of it at the time, but I did my darndest to prepare for a good installation.
    Maybe it was my lack of understanding, but I can honestly say that nowhere did I see anything that explained clearly that the best way to add content to multiple pages of a website would be to use categories instead of pages. And I know I’m not alone because, now that I have this issue, I’ve been targeting my searches on the forums and I find dozens of people with the same issue.
    At the risk of sounding like a pitiful crybaby, couldn’t someone design a plugin that allows a user to put new posts up on multiple pages of a website?
    Thank you both for your help.

    esmi,
    Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, this doesn’t help me at all. I don’t speak code. I chose to use wordpress because it seemed simple and I knew there was a huge support network. To demonstrate the depths of my ignorance, I copied this from the link you offered:

    “Save this to pageofposts.php and then assign PageofPosts as the Template when creating the action Page:”

    I have no idea what this means or how to initiate it. I did manage to “assign the Custom Field “category” with a value of “Events” to the Page” but after that, I’m lost. Is there a step-by-step writing of how to do this. A “Code for Dummies” if you will?
    Thanks again.

    I’m interested in this as well. Look forward to hearing any suggestions on this topic.
    Thank you
