  I consider myself a reasonably intelligent person, and in this case plenty of experience using computer, writing scripts, web sites et al… But I can not understand anything about posting a page. For instance yesterday when I signed up, I was presented with writing a first page comprising of why you are starting this blog. I could use the controls OK – no problem. But try as I might I could not publish the page. Yes I looked at the help. Instead what your script did was publish a page as the home page that I had not written and did not want. And still there is no-way of publishing what I actually want. It stinks.

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

  Ok. I clicked the link. Tried to start at the beginning, but then another problem. General Settings if it is there at all is not the same as the help page indicates.

  Am I right in thinking that your help pages need updating to face the reality of your user controls?

  Why is there not simply a publish page button? More applicably publish this page button?

  It seems that pne can do anything without instructions apart from publish a page.

  But not to worry too much as I opened another mirror blog on blogspot. That does work.

  Too complex I’m afraid. Not for me. I do not have the time to fight it. Could you please close it. Thank you.
