As some of you may have noticed, Support has new help pages, and is no longer in the old FAQ format. Rather than a list of answers to your questions, Support is now more like a knowledgebase, providing comprehensive overviews of features and tasks.
Please feel free to contact us with your thoughts and suggestions on how Support can refine its documentation to suit your needs. After all, Support is all about helping YOU! We want to make our resources as useful as possible, so you can get the answers you’re looking for without hassle.
We’d also like to announce the official holiday hours for Support. During these times, responses will be slower than normal, and you may not get a response for more than 24 hours after submitting your request. As always, we will do our best to get back to you as soon as we can when we’re back on.
Please be sure to consult the forums and Support pages before attempting to contact Support.

Love the new WordPress layout!!
Thanks for time translations 😉
Whats with the I saw, I expected, etc? What is mean
That’s a new way for us to understand and assist with issues within Support.
It’s broken down that way because most requests consist of three parts: 1) I performed an action on my blog or account, 2) Then I saw something funny or unwanted on my blog or account, 3) I expected it to look or behave in a specific way, which is different from the actual result.
This information helps us to investigate blogs and accounts more thoroughly the first go around, helping you get the results you’re looking for, fast.
don’t get to work early ,
just enjoy your holiday time,
🙂
After all the 24/7 support (especially during the 2.7 rollout), the support team really deserves a vacation anyway.
Happy holidays for everyone in Automattic. 😉
Hope you guys have some time to relax! Btw, has the UTC feature been updated for daylight savings?
Daylight savings needs to be manually adjusted. Check out this post for info. Cheers 🙂
I love support. But,…you guys need a break. Makes sense to me. Have a Merry Christmas and it will be Blessed! Thanks for everything…really. Love Lanie
Granted, the FAQ was scattershot, but I could–usually–find answers to simple questions. The new system seems daunting. And I still can’t find the code for an image in the text widget.
Please write Support if you have any specific ideas for improvement. We’d love to hear them.
To display an image in a text widget, you’ll need to use HTML. Here’s a good place to learn about image source code, generally.
happy holidays to all! love and cheers, R
Merry Christmas Heather & team! Have a good one! x
thanx WP for all yr support and tremendous patience in helping me to solving those glitchettes.
roll on 2009!
see if you can – including wordpress gals and boys – go 3 days [yr closed ones]
with out checking in on the www. / switching on yr pc – if it’s off / looking at yr blogs stats!
step back/forward into the real world / smell the roses or anything that’s alive /
breath in the fresh air / take a look at the the blue or cloudy sky / stretch in all directions and see if you can stand on one leg on yr tipy toes for a while!
spoil yr selves

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
What is the meaning of Merry in merry christmas?
Interesting question! According to the dictionary, merry means “full of or showing high-spirited merriment”, so in context it probably means “wishing you a high-spirited Christmas”.
are the video tutorials still available?
Yes, they are. You can see them here: http://faq.wordpress.com/?s=screencast and they will be added to the new support site as time goes on.
Merry Christmas, and thanks for the update!
Happy Holidays to the team!
thanks for the info, happy new year!

kewl, so in NY it’s Jan 1st, so it’s closed now, But what about other days? Or was that list an example?
The list explains our holiday hours. It is safe to assume that if we aren’t listed as “closed,” then we are open. 🙂
I really do picture you all year-round as little elves in a workshop, but laying outstretched on a couch, stuffed with turkey, belching and sluggin’ a few beers watching the game works for me, too…you all deserve a break! Happy New Year!
But how do we submit a question?
If you’re having any trouble with your blog or account, please contact Support.
Coming in a bit late! Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays.
It would be fantastic to see tighter integration between the Dashboard and the new Support area, along the lines of “learn more about this feature” or somesuch, perhaps as a part of the expanding Help button if clutter is a concern.
Thanks again for all that you do for us.
thanks super
It’s great, many thank’s for anything from wordpress..
Happy new year..
Thanks for taking care of us.
sweet… so that means we get better surrport??? if so keep doing what you do wordpress or should i say WP!!
Thanks for providing this wonderful platform to us for blogging… Wish you and your team a great year ahead.
