Has anyone else had this issue? I found out that those pages were linked to a sitemap that was created by the WordPress SEO plugin (I believe – I’ve now deleted that plugin and deleted the sitemap created by it). Has anyone else had this problem? Have you checked your sitemap to see if preview=true pages are showing up there?

Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated!

ttomp13 and fortunecat,

I am having this same problem as well. I have several wordpress preview=true pages being indexed as well. I also have some wordpress pages being indexed that can only be accessed if I am logged into my account. For example, if I click on the link in Google without being logged in, it will take me to mydomainname.com/wp-admin login page, and if I am logged in…it will take me to the post inside wordpress where I could actually edit it.

I’ve been working in Chrome and FF recently. Sometimes I will work on a post in Chrome, preview it, and then check how it looks in FF as well.

I find this disturbing, and I am not sure what to do about it.

Thanks for any insight in advance.

Thank you very much Doddlebee, I will check out those sites. ??

I am definitely serious about generating traffic to my site. I will continue to look for more info about driving traffic to my blog. In addition to adding a link from my website to my blog, I was thinking about linking from a Squidoo page that I already have up as well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me! If anyone else has any great suggestions or links to a good resource on the topic, please let me know.

Thank you very much for all of the help already!

“How do you expect Google to find your blog then. You need to have a link to it somewhere.”

I don’t know. I seriously have no idea what I’m doing. However, don’t some people without websites start a wordpress blog? How do they get found by other people on the net? Is it by the google webmaster tools you mention?

Also, like I mentioned, I can find one link to my blog from google blogger but it was a deleted one. However, I can’t find a link to my newer post in July.

I just feel really lost about blogs and how to drive traffic to mine! ??

Thanks for your help,

Moshu, you are a genius! It worked. I ended up manually uploading each file inside the wordpress upgrade folder and it worked. Thank you!!!

It keeps on stopping in the middle of upload. I’m going to try to upload the content inside the WordPress folder one by one. I’m using Cyberduck to upload everything and I’m on a Mac if that makes any difference.

Sorry, Moshu. Yes, that was a typo. I am trying to add the files again this morning after deleting the old ones, and it stopped during uploading and gave me this error message again: Network Error Connection Failed Connection Refused.

Oh, oops.

I see I got a Network Error: Connection failed
/public_html/shoptalk/wordpress/…des/js/scriptaculous/controls.js
Connection refused message.

Maybe that is what is wrong. I’m on dial up. Do you think it just didn’t go all of the way? I’m not sure what that error message means. Sorry, I don’t mean to be a pain. I wish I were more computer literate!

Okay, Moshu, I did as you said. I deleted all files except wp-config.php and uploaded version 10.2.1. Now, I keep on getting a “404 not found The requested resource could not be found” message whenever I try to go to the run the upgrade file or try to log in to my admin interface.

I wonder what I am doing wrong.

Thanks for any insight and answers in advance.

Thank you, Moshu.

I am trying this now. Do I have to worry about plug ins at all? I really don’t know what Plug ins are.

Hmm…maybe I should try upgrading to WordPress 2.2? I’m on a Mac and use Firefox.

Thanks for anymore input or advice. It’s late now so I will try upgrading tomorrow.
