Ho hum, been backwards and forwards with them, and they claim they can receive email using that plug in. I’ve tried five different email addresses, and didn’t get emails to any of them.

Any suggestions? I can see I’m not getting anywhere with the hosting company.

Thanks again.

Thanks, I’ve done that, although I’m not hopeful of getting a sensible response!

Hmm, tried that, and it’s still not arriving. I tried it with two different email accounts, and I didn’t get anything to either.

Any ideas? Thanks

Hmm, doesn’t look like it. I tried sending one about 15 minutes ago, and have had email to that address since, so it looks like this is the issue.

Any idea how I go about fixing this? I installed WP via my hosting company’s control panel, I didn’t do it myself. What settings to do I need to check?

Thanks again.

What other email would I get from the site? I cant see anything else under the Settings -> Discussion -> Email me whenever section other than when a comment is held, but that hasn’t happened yet.

No, I’m not using any plugins like that. I’m pretty new to WP, and am still finding my way around.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

@judgerookie – thanks, but no. That would be useful when writing code, but I’m looking to do this when writing a post.

@sterndata – Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll take a look at that plug in. Shame it has to be done that way though.

Thanks for the reply, but as I said in my initial post, I was looking for the category cloud widget that was mentioned in that article. I wasn’t using tags at that stage.

As it happens, having read about the difference between tags and categories, I modified my posts to use tags, and so can use the tag cloud widget.

What baffled me was that by default, the feature to add tags to your posts is disabled. You have to go to the page options and enable it first.

Anyway, all sorted now. Thanks

Hmm, actually I’m hosting it on my hosting company’s server, not on wp.com or wp.org.

How come there are two WP sites anyway? More to the point, if I’m not hosting on either, how do I know which one I should post my questions on?

Thanks for the reply.

Ah ha, just noticed that under the “Screen options” is a checkbox for tags, and it wasn’t checked! I checked it, and guess what? I have a tags box.

Thanks anyway.

It’s on my hosting company, I installed it via my control panel.

I’m using version 4.8.6 if it makes any difference. There is a link to update to version 4.9.5, but when I tried it, it failed. Will try again, but the impression I got is that tags have been around for a long time, so this shouldn’t be the issue.

Thanks for the reply.

That’s great, thanks very much!
