Hello everyone! I'm in the process of moving my blog...actually, it IS moved, I just have some formatting to do on some of the older posts. And when I say "I" I mean my husband.
So, you can all migrate over to www.maiseyyates.com (this is my starting attempt at getting all 'pro' or something like that...)
I am going to turn the keyboard over to husband man...
The first thing you need is for Wordpress to be hosted on your domain. It was really easy on Hostmonster. You just pick the Wordpress link and install. It's even easier (hopefully) once you've done that and you login to Wordpress for the first time.
You go to the tools menu on the left, select 'Import.'
Select 'Blogger' from the list that comes up. That's how you get your blogspot blog.
It will come up with a button that says, 'Authorize' (or something like that).
You press the button, it brings you to blogspot to approve the domain, then it takes you back to Wordpress.
There, you press 'Install,' and you're good to go.
You can 'Visit Site' and see all your blog posts on your domain, in the default Wordpress theme.
That's when the fun begins, because you can browse new themes and plugins, and do all kinds of awesome stuff!
Haha...well, I'm still checking here too for now, but I'm trying to move it all over there. :-) I know, I'm such a difficult diva...Glad you all like it!
Wow, that was great explaining from husband man. Sadly I don't think Wordpress is hosted on my site. At least, I built the thing from scratch and there wasn't an easy import gadget I could load onto it. Shall have to do some further investigation of the matter... Thanks anyway!
Love the website! How did you get your blog on it?

ReplyDeleteHe wants to know if it takes PHP...
ReplyDeleteand who hosts it?
ReplyDeleteYou need to put a link in the main post above so peeps can just click through to your new site. ;)
ReplyDeleteUm, what's PHP? The host is a NZ hosting site.
