[19:45] patricia.glogowski: very strange never happened before

[19:45] illya: haven't had that problem, but sometimes wordpress is slow

[19:45] illya: I think it's a connection prob. not worpress

[19:51] patricia.glogowski: i think that's all what i needed to do

[19:51] namckeand: Good question, Patricia. Bet that was it.

[19:51] illya: wordpress is rather restrictive

[19:52] illya: keeps its sites safe by avoiding some coding

[19:52] namckeand: But I like wordpress a lot anyway.

[19:52] jenverschoor: Me too

[19:52] illya: a lot of possibilities with the different pages

[19:53] namckeand: Many times there are work-arounds. You just have to look for them.

[19:53] jenverschoor: True that with Blogger you can add many more Widgets

[19:53] AnnF: yes, used username

[19:54] jenverschoor: But you have the about pages that are wonderful in Wordpress

[19:54] bdieu: I had no problems with Flickr nor Delicious...have just posted a message

[19:54] namckeand: I love the pages in wordpress, too.

[19:55] patricia.glogowski: i didn't have any problems either. it actually seems to be working well

[19:55] illya: I should do more with them

[19:55] illya: the pages

[19:55] patricia.glogowski: did you guys posted the buttons smielt and dekita?

[19:55] illya: :-) yo betcha!

[19:55] namckeand: I have my portfolio set up on a wordpress blog and use the pages a lot there.

[19:56] bdieu: http://smielt08.wordpress.com

[19:56] bdieu: http://smielt08.wordpress.com

[19:56] namckeand: Yes. Mosdels helo a lot.

[19:56] namckeand: Models help a lot, that is.

[19:57] bdieu: no problems with the widgets at all

[19:57] bdieu: no problems with the widgets at all

[19:58] AnnF: Is it possible that the widget can be affected by which WordPress presentation you use?

[19:58] illya: Bee,please share the coding :-)

[19:58] namckeand: Darn, Bee. How come I can't do it?

[19:58] illya: each template has different possiblities, depending on the adeveloper

[19:58] jenverschoor: Which steps do you follow?

[19:58] illya: there are a couple with very few possiblitites

[19:59] patricia.glogowski: yes, i think it's possible that the template may have something to do with the widget problems

[19:59] jenverschoor: You can add many things to your Wordpress blog

[19:59] bdieu: you need to force the template by using the widgets

[19:59] bdieu: you need to force the template by using the widgets

[19:59] bdieu: it´s very easy

[19:59] bdieu: it´s very easy

[19:59] illya: and you can change your template whenever you like

[19:59] namckeand: Yes, but if you can add widgets, I would think you could add it.

[19:59] namckeand: But I haven't been able to get del.icio.us to work.

[19:59] jenverschoor: You can add widgets

[19:59] illya: you shouldn't lose anyting, but I don't knwo about the widgets
