How do I send a link to my friends?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have written two post about our European trip yet I cannot find how to notify my friends to look at them. I just want to send them an email that say hey look at my blog,! There seems to be too much jargon that you think we will just understand and we don’t.

    Keep it simple please!

    Ask the community, no I clicked on happiness engineers?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    You don’t get direct access to the happiness engineers unless you have a certain level of upgrades, if I recall. All questions go here first.

    What problem are you having? How hard is it to go up to the URL bar in your browser, copy the link, and paste it in an email? The link for this thread is https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-do-i-send-a-link-to-my-friends?replies=1 and if I wanted to share this thread I’d just put that in an email, or a Facebook post, or whatever, and send it.

    Yes, that is the problem. Until you click the Publish button they remain only visible to you.

    Thanks Raincoaster,
    I managed to send off my blog address that took me two days to publish and find sending my first two blogs out last night to a list of friends! This morning I awake to read the frustrations of many of my friends ,non of whom can open the link, needing a password or the language being in French! What a nightmare and frustration trying to organise a blog has been and my holiday is a week down the track!

    It appears to me unless I am willing to link with facebook or some other, any simple link is well hidden, detracting users from going the way that I wish to go!

    “URL doesnt work.. you have to log in to see it so presuming youd have to make an account to view your blog”. From my daughter

    Hi
    H and I tried to open it but need password.
    Want to see!!

    Hey Leon

    I’ll need a ‘Email ou nom d’utilisateur’ and a ‘Mot de passe’ in order to
    ‘se connecter’

    I don’t think you have given us the reading page. I think you have given us
    the writing page.

    Cheers
    Jim

    Raincoaster, with 20 years experience in computing why does this so called simple task of making a blog elude me!

    What am I missing?

    Dude, you still haven’t got any published posts.

    Have you gone through http://learn.wordpress.com? Do so.

    Thanks for your time taken to reply Raincoaster, however the program told me that I had “published my first post” some days ago and when I look at my posts on some page it has them as published.

    I look at the forums and all I see is the mayhem experienced by others as for the learn tutorials well I went there days ago!

    I searched which are the best blog platforms availible and it says Word Press yet I have had it! Too much time wasted, frustration, and disappointment trying and trusting word press. I will email my stuff back home. If I do find a away to blog I think I’ll be stating what a bad interface it is for the user and what a bad experience it had been for me! And how glad I was that I did pay for it (as I would have it it had been successful.

    Thanks Raincoaster I do appreciate your time and effort

    Kindest regards

    Leon
