So if you have created the Wordpress users, you can tell us how to map them during the import. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/moving-excerpts-authors#post-158 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 11:00:17 +0000 Robin 158@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>Two questions:</p> <p>Will excerpts be migrated along w/ their corresponding articles? </p> <p>And is there anything I need to do in advance to be sure that articles are mapped to the correct author on the new Wordpress site -- should I create profiles for each author first, or will that be done as part of the migration on your end? </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/draft-status-after-transfer-from-blogharbor-to-pressharbor#post-157 Sat, 03 Jan 2009 14:05:58 +0000 PressHarbor Support 157@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>We usually do not import drafts, but can attempt to do so.

I don't think either of those are actual Blogware URLs, but regardless yes, we think our redirections work properly for as many cases as we could find over the past nearly 2 years we have been doing Blogware migrations. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/subdomain-question#post-153 Mon, 29 Dec 2008 21:33:44 +0000 PressHarbor Support 153@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>I'm really having a tough time following your question. But let me say the following:</p> <p>* Your PressHarbor blog will be identified by a single hostname which Wordpress will use as the primary hostname.</p> <p>* You can have aliases to your primary hostname. There is no hard limit, let's just say that at some point a really large number of aliases would be too many.</p> <p>* Hostnames can not go to categories. </p> <p>* You can use blog.arlingtoncardinal.com as your Pressharbor blog address or <a href="http://www.arlingtoncardinal.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.arlingtoncardinal.com</a> as your address or news.arlingtoncardinal.com or whatever...</p> <p>Let me know if that answers some of your concerns. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/subdomain-question#post-151 Mon, 29 Dec 2008 01:24:01 +0000 arlingtoncardinal 151@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>If I understand correctly when using the BlogHarbor setup I could have arlingtoncardinal.com on my static website and use the subdomains for the blog.

I am wondering if I can have the arlingtoncardinal.com domain forward to a page on that site, but have a subdomain, such as blog.arlingtoncardinal.com bring viewers to a blog hosted on PressHarbor.com. I am thinking the answer is "no" but just wanted to check. Arlingtoncardinal.com would be a forwarded domain to a page on Arlingtoncards.com. Arlingtoncards.com is the actual hosted site.</p> <p>By creating a CNAME record and pointing it to BlogHarbor I can have up to 3 hostnames, how does that compare to PressHarbor? Can I have a number of subdomains on PressHarbor going to different specific categories?</p> <p>If I understand correctly when using the BlogHarbor setup I could have arlingtoncardinal.com on my static website and use the subdomains for the blog. Is that still possible? </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/cname-record-to-my-dns-and-email#post-146 Sun, 21 Dec 2008 10:56:47 +0000 PressHarbor Support 146@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>Are you using email somewhere else and wish to continue using email hosted elsewhere?</p> <p>If not, then you would just set your nameservers to </p> <blockquote><p>ns1.pressharbor.com<br /> ns2.pressharbor.com<br /> ns3.pressharbor.com </p></blockquote> <p>And we will do your DNS and your email will be managed here and you will be able to use the Plesk control panel here to manage your mail and web services. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/cname-record-to-my-dns-and-email#post-145 Sat, 20 Dec 2008 03:16:15 +0000 arlingtoncardinal 145@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>If I am using my domain name by adding a CNAME record to my DNS hosted by my registrar provider, does that mean I cannot use the email features and subdomain capability available through the PressHarbor Plesk control panel? </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/compare-category-template-and-article-template-in-blogharbor-to-wordpress#post-144 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 08:52:59 +0000 PressHarbor Support 144@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>Wordpress is completely customizable. You will of course need HTML and CSS knowledge to make presentation layer changes, and understanding PHP will be required in order to change some elements. But yes, you really can make your page look like whatever you want... I don't know if there's any other way to say it... </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/compare-category-template-and-article-template-in-blogharbor-to-wordpress#post-143 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 03:25:07 +0000 arlingtoncardinal 143@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>What I was getting at was whether I could have a same visual element that I have in the BlogHarbor account. Specifically the ability to create banner ads and/or graphic headers at the top of the center main column or the bottom of the center main column. I have a three-column blog with the center column about 550 pixels wide. In the center column (category-specific) there are elements that are presented above the article text and elements that are placed below the article text that are the same for every article that is posted. These also exist for the list view of the articles in the category. They are sort of like headers and footers for the center column -- not to be confused with the Header and Footer of the whole page.</p> <p>If you know "off the top of your head" please advise thanks ... otherwise I will be looking and checking themes for that solution. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/blogharbor-photo-albums-to-galleries#post-140 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 20:14:49 +0000 PressHarbor Support 140@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>No they do not come over as galleries.

But creating a large number of categories would probably be a bad idea, I think the server would have performance issues looping through large numbers of categories.

One such plugin is here: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/capa/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/capa/</a></p> <p>No, content imported from Blogware to Wordpress does not get any security applied to it. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/compare-category-template-and-article-template-in-blogharbor-to-wordpress#post-133 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 20:07:06 +0000 PressHarbor Support 133@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>If you are referring to documentation doing an analysis of Blogware templates vs. Wordpress themes, not we do not have such a documentation. And it really would be a waste of your time to start trying a 1 to 1 conversion. You are much better off studying how Wordpress templates work and starting from there, rather than starting from how it compares to another platform. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/header-images-and-linking#post-132 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 20:04:03 +0000 PressHarbor Support 132@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>And yes, you can customize the header of your blog theme however you please. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/header-images-and-linking#post-131 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 20:02:29 +0000 PressHarbor Support 131@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>First, there is nothing different about "Wordpress in PressHarbor" vs. standard Wordpress. It's not any different from a software perspective. We think we offer a great environment: well-managed servers with great support...
