Widget problem: About Me widget for WordPress
-
I am trying to configure the About Me widget and have a couple of basic questions. I don’t know code, so I’m trying to fill in the blanks it requires. I have copied and pasted the configuration page below, but it comes up as code. I hope you can understand what I need help with.
Q#1. It asks me for the About URL – where do I find that url? I have downloaded the widget and activated it successfully. Is it the URL after it has been added to my website files?
Q#2. When I click on the image icon on the configuration page I get the image description page (copied and pasted far below). It asks me for the image url. I have tried to use the image url I found in the “properties” of my photo – C:\Users\Donna etc. , but that doesn’t work. I’ve also tried the file stepdown – public html/wp-content/images/Croppe of me2.jpg — but that won’t work either. Where would I find the image url I’m supposed to use there? I plan to use a personal photo off of my desktop – it is already downloaded to my web files. Also, will the size and other info requested be found under “properties”?Thanks,

Looks like your version of the widget isn’t compatible with the version of wordpress you are using.
By the way, the about url can stay blank. If it’s not blank then the title of the about me widget on your page will be turned into a hyperlink and click through to the url you put in the about url.
