Addendum to above.
I just tried to create another live bookmark of my feed and it came out a little different.
The feed location now says “https://mydomain.com/?feed=rss2”.
Is this correct?
Now when I click the bookmark, I don’t get the “failed to load” message, but an Icon that looks like a page or something. Clicking it does nothing as far as I can tell.
Thanks . . . still:).

HandySolo — Yes, I did in fact install the plugin and I happily report it worked as advertised. Mission accomplished.
And the suspicion I had about v 2.04 showing up somewhere was in fact at the bottom of the admin pages so I guess the fantastico installed the most current version.
Thanks for your help.

I found “logout” in lower right under “Meta”, but who cares where, IT WORKED!!!!!
Once logged out I find “login” choice sending me to password page — just like in IE.
Thanks very, very much for very, very prompt responses.

I can’t be certain since this is brand new for me, but I don’t think so.
In any case, whether I did that or not, how do I correct the situation?
Thanks.

OK – Progress???
In navigating around my NEW blog I found references suggesting it MIGHT be 2.04. How can I tell for sure? There’s no HELP>ABOUT to click.

Moving on, I’ve located a means of exporting my old blog to the new blog — sort of. I can download a file called “WordPress/MU” that seems to have the material I’d like to transfer to the new blog, BUT I don’t know how to move this file to the new blog.
If I were to upload it (ftp?), would it find it’s own directory or would I have to select the destination directory?
If so, how?
Thanks.

Thanks again and again and . . .
I just got message that 2.04 is available for download, but since I used fantastico to install 2.03 rather than dl and upload myself, I guess now I’m stuck with fantastico for updates.
I sure hope the “someone else” you mention has the answer:).

I’m baaaaack! And of course I have questions. I have chosen the chicken’s way out and used Fantastico to install WP on bluehost.
It has installed and even has “greeting” post.
I now have to import the files from my existing WP.com. There is an option to import “from other than wordpress”, but not from WP.
Should I be using Fantastico for this or the plugin recommended above.
Also the installation record in Fantastico says installed version is 2.03, latest version is /2.04. It suggests I “update now”, but for the life of me I can’t find the way to do that.
Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

Thanks for prompt replies. It will be a while till I take the recommended steps, so only one more question at the moment.
HandySolo – on your plugin – I assume I’d be uploading to the “new” wordpress AFTER I upload that to the new web space. Correct?
Would you suggest using fantastico to do all this or just doing it manually?

Thanks for all your help. I’ll probably be back, but for now . . . here goes!

I like the get my feet wet first approach. Would I be able at some point to move the blog to PowWeb without starting from scratch?
