Today is the end. From henceforth not a single one of you has ANY excuse for not publishing on the Holy Worlds blog.

Why? Because I posted a complete guide to using the blog, walking through each step from idea to publish. Confusion and ignorance are no longer excuses for not publishing.

viewtopic.php?f=40&t=4201

And if you think you have a better excuse... try me. :twisted:

With so many options, I am confused as to which might be the most productive to choose and follow. ;)

Wordpress thinks my email address belongs to a spammer, so it won't let me get an account.

That's not good, you need to get that fixed.

@Hannah - What options? :D You're supposed to go through all the sections in the tutorial in order, if that's what you mean. ;)

@BushMaid - No, because you didn't ask me for cupcakes. ;)

@Elanhil - Do you have another email?

@Arwen - You need a WordPress account for the HW blog. :) Blogger won't work.

@Varon - Right sidebar, way at the bottom, there is a section labeled "Meta." "Log In" should be the first option. If that's not the case, let me know. Excited to hear it, about the post!

* chuckles * Sorry to do this to you, Rachel, but there is no registration link. We disabled registrations a long time ago because we were getting swamped by spam registrations. The protocol is currently to have an admin of the blog create the account for you, but we can change that to opening up registrations and then closing them again for each person who needs to register. :)

Just make a new email which will be your public, generic address, like calebjoyce or something. And then sign up with that one :)

*facepalm* I assume you didn't tell Kaitlyn this, either? 'Cause she didn't say anything when she approved the guide. :P

Well, that's fine. I've got admin blog powers now (Katie gave them to me! :twisted:), so I can make accounts, right? If that's true, I'll just change the guide to say "Lemme make an account for you."

Thanks, Jay. :)

*raises hand meekly* I knew. There's an announcement stickied in the blog forum somewhere. And I was wondering about that part, but I thought maybe there'd been some secret committee who changed it... That's why I used to have to help you create accounts for new users. But yes, you're an admin now, so you can do it. :D

Caleb, you might be able to sign up with a secret address and then change it to a non-secret one. Would that work? :?

* chuckles * Yeah, we announced and explained it a few times. It's easy to miss though. :P

And yeah, you can change your email afterwards.

I knew about it, I just didn't think about it when I was reading the guide, Philli.

This thread has either been completed, or run its course. It is now being archived to satisfy Dusting Daisy's need to have a clean forum. ;)
