Blog

Hi. I am fairly new to the site, so I may be missing something obvious.

I added the "Blog" page to my navigation, but am unable to edit it. I can view it and publish it, but not edit it. When I click on "edit", nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?

I saw in a previous post that there was a recommendation to rename it, but since I cannot get into the "edit" feature, I am not able to.

Please help!

Thanks!

Did you manually create a new page title "blog" or were you using the new beta blogging tool?

I used the blogging tool.

Because the blogging tool is not yet fully integrated with the site, you will have to directly go to the url http://snappages.com/members/blog.php in order to edit the blog.

Thanks!

One more question, if you don't mind. I noticed that when I made a posting, anytime I used quotation marks or an apostrophe, it placed this symbol in the posting: ��

For example:

As a culture, we love weddings. Most young girls long for their wedding day. We go to huge, outrageous expense to make it “perfect”���. We want the perfect caterer, the perfect pictures, the perfect location, and the perfect mate. For many couples, it”���s all about the wedding.


Is there any way to fix this? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks again for taking the time to answer my questions. I really appreciate it!

Are you inputing the text directly into the site, or are you copying and pasting from another program? Sometimes this will happen when pasting because some programs like microsoft word, use different characters for quotation marks that aren't compatible. Try deleting the quotation marks and manually entering them in.

That worked. Thanks for all the info!
