WordPress Issues

  I have just recently upgraded my Bluehost server to Business Cloud. I have three active domains on the hosting account – 1 Primary and 2 Add-Ons. That was a few weeks ago. I installed WordPress on all three. I ran into a couple issues.

  1) When I log into my Bluehost account, and click on the ‘WordPress Tools’ tab at the top of the page, it only shows one of my domains in the drop down list. The other thing is, is that it constantly says that WordPress needs to be updated. I click on update, and it goes right back to saying it needs to be updated. I looked up possible issues, and it said that the host may have malware on the server or something. I don’t think that’s the case. I talked wiht Bluehost over the weekend for over an hour, they couldn’t find anything wrong.

  2) When I installed WordPress on my primary domain (this was after I installed it on the other two ‘add-on’s’), I connected JetPack. A couple days later I was being told by my dashboard that JetPack was no longer connected. When I tried to re-connect I couldn’t. After doing a lot of research, I tried something suggested in a forum of over 2 years old, and that was to install the plug-in called ‘Core Control’ and turn off (stop transport?) something called cURL. I did, and I was able to connect JetPack.

  3) I was also told that once JetPack was connected, I should enable cURL again. But when I do, I can’t connect to the Mojo Marketplace, or the Add Plug In pages, or the theme site. So right now, I still have cURL off, though I’ve been told it should be activated because somethings need it.

  Any idea what’s going on?
