I’m setting up a website and am stuck on a few things…

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have used a WordPress template for my website, but on certain pages where I want to insert a picture under the heading, it’s not giving me the option up upload from my own saved picture files. Also I have created a ‘Gallery’ page, where I want to post several photos with captions, which are relevant to my business, but I cannot see how I can download, and I need to do this in a way that it looks like a picture gallery.
    Also on my ‘Contacts’ page, the pre-sets show a form for potential clients to complete, but then WordPress advises that I need to upgrade my plan to use the ‘premium block’ – I presume this means they will charge me if this form is linked to my email address? If so, what is the cost of this?
    Need help – many thanks

  • Hi there,

    I have used a WordPress template for my website, but on certain pages where I want to insert a picture under the heading, it’s not giving me the option up upload from my own saved picture files.

    This is for https://waggypoochwalks.wordpress.com/ yes? What is the name of the page or pages you are having trouble with? Are you unable to replace any image on the page, or just specific ones?

    Also I have created a ‘Gallery’ page, where I want to post several photos with captions, which are relevant to my business, but I cannot see how I can download, and I need to do this in a way that it looks like a picture gallery.

    You have tried the Gallery Block? It can be used to create a grid of thumbnail images, that when clicked on will display in a full screen carousel (with next/previous arrows) so all images can be viewed at full size.

    Also on my ‘Contacts’ page, the pre-sets show a form for potential clients to complete, but then WordPress advises that I need to upgrade my plan to use the ‘premium block’ – I presume this means they will charge me if this form is linked to my email address? If so, what is the cost of this?

    Is it your intent to hide information on your contact page, and show it to only certain people who pay to access it? The reason I ask is because your form includes inside it one “premium content” block, which is a way to publish paid subscriber content on your site.

    For context this is used most often to create “paid blog posts” that only subscribing “members” can access, so I’ve never seen it inside a form before. Screenshot:

    Perhaps it was added by mistake? If so let us know and we can direct you how to remove it.

    Thanks!
