About Posting in Blog
-
So i need to post in a subscribed blog (as an alternate method of handing in assignments for school) and I have absolutely no idea how to post. I just joined and the support page is terribly set up for newcomers. I need to know what to click on, how to select the blog I need to post in, and any other information related. Please help!
-
May we please have the URL of the site you need to Post to beginning with http to help us give you the proper advice?

Okay, the actual blog you’re supposed to post to is just http://swcewc.wordpress.com. When you do post there, just look in the right-hand sidebar of the Write Post page and you’ll see the category “creative comp 1” and check the tickbox next to it. THat’ll make sure your post comes up in the right place, http://swcewc.wordpress.com/category/creative-comp-1/
Now, for basic posting instructions, look here:

But that is my problem
I don’t know where the ‘Write Post’ page is
there is no sidebar as far as i can tell and i have tried most other options which didn’t help.
can you send me a direct link to the “Write Post” page? -
Read those two threads I gave you. If you are signed in with your authorized ID, ie the one that uses the same email as the invitation was issued to, you will have a grey Admin bar at the top of every WordPress.com page. On that, it’s got a tab for My Blogs.
I’m assuming the admin of that blog has issued the official Invitation. You’ll have to check with them to make sure (and look in your email spam folder, sometimes they go there).
-
Yes I did get an invitation from them a few hours ago (and accepted), but there isn’t a “My Blogs” section. Only “My Blog” which the only option is to register a new blog, or “Blog Info” which is of no use.
-
You need to log-in with the name & password in the email not the name you are logging into the Forum here.
-
When I try to do that it says invalid username/password. I don’t see why the account I originally made to use wordpress wouldn’t allow me to post to blogs?
-
The blog owner of http://swcewc.wordpress.com/ has to add your username to the blog otherwise you cannot post to that blog. Contact the teacher/professor and give them your username and make sure you have been added to the blog.
If you have, then while you are logged in here at wordpress.COM, with that username, go to http://swcewc.wordpress.com/wp-admin/ .

That account is not the account that got the invitation, apparently.
The email needs to be the same. The username needs to be the same. The password needs to be the same. You can have as many accounts as you want here, but the invitation only went to one of them, the one with that particular email. That has to be the one to accept the invitation.
Log OUT of this username and log in here: http://swcewc.wordpress.com/wp-admin
