Missy, try to put those words (sending referrers) in the little box on the upper right corner – where it says “Search first”!
yeah, i did that …and excuse me so very much for coming to a support forum to ask for help… but when i did that originally it just showed the stuff at the bottom of the page that had nothing to do with enabling sending referrers.
I dont visit these forums everyday because i dont have a problem everyday, i did a new installation through fantastico and never had this problem before, i dont even know what it means … so when i didnt see anything when i put the entire phrase i was getting in the search box, i figured it’d be ok to come here and ask for help.
so anyways, if anyone is willing to help me, I am using opera and I have the box checked in the privacy area to allow referrers. As far as the advice about firewalls, I am using Panda, and I havent a clue where to check on there.
If you didn’t have this problem before, then it’s a change that’s happened on your system in the last couple of days.
The Panda firewall isn’t covered on that link above – I’ll look it up later.

I had the same problem after installing from Fantastico (“Sorry, you need to enable sending referrers, for this feature to work.”), when trying to delete a post (first post) I discovered that if you “edit” the post first you can then delete it. With regards to categories; you can’t delete the default one, as you have probably discovered.
I have this problem..
But I solve this like this.
1. logout
2. login again
its generally just a firewall of some type – covered in the link given above
I had this problem, I am using Norton Internet Security. I followed the instructions at http://codex.wordpress.org/Enable_Sending_Referrers
and it works now.
