    Hello,

    I’ve tagged this thread with ‘modlook’ in the sidebar tags, this will alert staff. Be sure to subscribe to this thread so you are notified when staff responds. To subscribe, find “subscribe to topics link” in the sidebar of this thread and click it.

  • Hi there,

    It’s impossible to help you without knowing the address of the site FROM and the address of the site TO which you want to move your followers. Please provide that information and I can see if it’s still possible to move the followers from the deleted site.

    Oh … k.. here is the details… its from momscribblingjournal.wordpress.com to scribblingjournal.wordpress.com… Is it possible to transfer the stats too ?

  • Thanks for the links. I was able to still move your followers and your stats over to the new site.

    Please let me know if I can help with anything else.

  • Likes cannot be transferred manually, no. When you change a site address Likes are kept, because your content isn’t actually moved. But if you manually move the content, likes are not transferred with it.

    I posted this question in some ither forum.. but disn’ t get reply . It’s been more than 4 days.. is it ok to post the queation here ?

    Sign up button for Facebook page?
    Hi, I have created a Facebook page for my blog. I have added a ‘sign-up’ button directing to my blog. I want that when the user gets directed to my website (blog), they are asked to subscribe for my blog with their email id. Currently the sign-up button takes me to the website directly and does not ask to subscribe. How can I add this?
    Or it is not possible for free hosted blog ?

    The blog I need help with is
    Scribblingjournal.wordpress.com

  • The only pop-up subscription option we have is for MailChimp subscriptions, which would mean you’ll have to send out newsletters using MailChimp. That will show to anyone visiting your site for the first time, and each time after they clear their browser cookies.

    But for regular WordPress.com subscription options we don’t have a pop-up notification.

    Oh .. is it possible to create a page with subscription form alone and connect that with facebook signup button ?

  • You can create a page and add the blog subscription shortcode to it, yes, then link that page to your button on Facebook.

    But I would recommend linking it to your site’s home page instead. Let your site’s content be the first thing people see. If the content is good enough, people will follow the site without needing to be “forced” into it.
