  another angle about my question on my material being copied

  when i go to another blog and they have the traffic log i have noticed that a visitor from glasgow has visited ” 0 ” seconds ago and it happened to-night again

  is it possible my IP address is logged from scotland as its the nearest place to N.Ireland and i’m showing up as someone from glasgow in my own blog

  i know it sounds daft

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

  i know this is going to look really stupid , but

  i have just put a new post into my blog and i had to go to the dashboard , main front page , misc page , 6 or 7 times to alter it and i was tracked by the person from glasgow every move i made so it must be me ?

  it sounds daft :)

  Harry,
  I cannot help with this. ISPs are saving money by plaving hundreds of us in the same IP number.

  I removed my feedjit. It’s too distracting.

  I use copyscape, plagium (beta) and copygator to search for and track content theft and plagiarism. I reduced my feeds to summary so I could get some work done rather than spending time on tracking down content thieves.

  P.S. I found a neat Translation widget http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/02/14/translation-widget-for-wordpress-com-blogs/

  Harry,
  Look at the post I linked and look at my sidebar. I have found a little translation widget. I’m not referring to the page that I gave you the code for. Look again. :)

  this is the ” L” you forgot :)

  unrelated = why has the main post page got shorter and why are there posts being moved because if they are going to support they will never be answered

  I can’t speak for the other volunteers, but I know how to find stuff that’s not on the front page and I answer things that have been pushed back even 4 pages.

  @raincoaster
  Me too.

  @Harry
  The threads that fall of the front page are not lost. Staff and Volunteers know where and how to find them. :)
