Will be moving website to WordPress, but have questions regarding how I can move the content to the new website before it goes live?

  Themagicrobot,
  Gee, that throws a MAJOR monkey wrench into the whole matter. :-(

  Not too much, I hope.

  If you do want to stay with Bluehost, and therefore the self-hosted version of WordPress, you can find support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Update: It’s a really rough go on the WordPress.org forums. How so? I posted a topic 2-1/2 days ago and received only one reply. (Unfortunately, I had already taken the advice that the person mentioned.) Here’s the link to the post: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/need-help-making-website-live-via-bluehost-dashboard-and-wordpress-org/#post-12498906.

  It’s now been about 4 weeks that I’ve had the website fully created (all pages), but still can’t “launch” it. Very frustrating.

  Update March 6, 2020. I’m out of the weeds and all is well with the website. It took me awhile to know exactly WHAT to delete, but once I DID delete the page in question (and re-created it with the correct information) it was a breeze! :-)

  Glad you got your other site up and running eventually. Remember support here can only be provided for https://teresiancarmelitecentrecanada.wordpress.com/ .
  Keep WordPress.com in mind when your current subscription elsewhere expires though. Here you would have Livechat support with staff (with a paid plan) and I’m sure things would have gone more smoothly.

  Thanks @themagicrobot :)
