  • Ahhhhhh!!! I spent HOURS yesterday trying to figure out why my posts were automatically being closed, the exact same problem that mcorkum is having. I created new accounts, everything, and it just wasn’t working. I’m having the same problem again today. Chris_K, can you please give me more information on what’s happening? I’m not seeing anything in my posts that could be considered questionable. Is it my email address that is trapping my posts? Did something happen there? I ask because I created two new WP forum accounts, one with the same email as the account that wasn’t working, and a third with a different email address. The third one worked.

    This forum is so essential, I would like to make sure that I can use it when I need it – I worry that if my posts take hours to show up, they will be buried and then I won’t get replies to my issues (not to mention, the quicker someone can help, the better! :))

    Thanks in advance for any help (I really hope you SEE this reply, as I’m sure it will get trapped, and not sure when it will show up!!)

    I was having problems posting to this forum yesterday, and could not tag this message. I just added the tag for contact form 7, so I’m hoping someone will now see this message and let me know if it’s possible to add HTML to the “message” field. Thanks in advance!

    I don’t have an answer to your question about alphabetizing (I’m new to WP too) but I’ll comment on WordPress support. When people do bother to answer your question, the WP community is so hugely helpful. Between the forum and the Codex, there’s such a wealth of information. But if you take a look how many posts go without a response, it’s sad. And mine are some that have no responses, which leaves me wondering if I’m doing something wrong when posting my questions!

    The trick to finding your answer is figuring out what to type in the Codex or Forum search. Which can be SO hard when you’re new to WordPress, because you don’t actually know what the technical term is to ask… but you know what you want your page to do.

    Hopefully you’ll get lucky and someone will read your post and bother to answer it rather than skip on to something more interesting. The help is here, amazingly talented people on this forum who I swear can do anything.

    Good luck to you.

    My apologies, a Google search turned up my answer, and yes it’s me being rookie to PHP. Should anyone else ever need the answer, you simply add ‘<?php echo date(“Y”) ?>’ to the html in place of your year.
