Teacher begging for help accessing files on wordpress blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    I LOVE wordpress for my students and bought a new domain name so I could access my blog at work. That worked, but does me no good b/c all of my files still have “.wordpress.com” attached and are blocked by our district’s firewall. I requested that “http://curlsbio.wordpress.com/files” be added to our list of approved domains and was cleared, but I still cannot access anything I have saved as media (namely jpegs, word docs and PPTs) and have placed on pages or within posts. Anyone have a way I could get this enabled? THANK YOU!!

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

    I’m afraid we can’t help you. Only staff can; either yours or WordPress.com’s.

    All media files will always have the root URL of your WordPress.com domain. Sounds like your IT staff have got to get on that.

  • Actually, your files are under http://curlsbio.files.wordpress.com/ so you’ll need to ask them to whitelist that.

    Of course, you could ask them to whitelist all of wordpress.com instead. ;)
