WordPress Reader

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, I was operating my site for awhile through WordPress. I am now self-hosting on Bluehost. The way I used to get most of my readers and followers was through tagging my posts that would then show up in WordPress discover. For example, if I tagged a post under success it would come up on the success tag in the wordpress reader. Now that I have a self-hosted site is there any way to do this anymore? Also, is there an easy way to still get people from WordPress following my blog now that it doesn’t have the follow button from when I post a new blog with tags on WordPress? Thank you very much for the help!

    Posts from self hosted wordpress.ORG sites will not appear on the wordpress.COM topics (tags and categories) pages because the site is not hosted by wordpress.COM.

    To get a follow button on your site install the Jetpack plugin.

    You are posting to the wrong support forum. We cannot help you as that site is not hosted by wordpress.COM.

    We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
    (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
    (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.

    Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

    Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/

    Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
    http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack

    However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    As you are referring to a site that is not hosted here, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.
