Hi!

Is there a previous post that used that category “cake” as a slug that you might have deleted? If it’s still in the Trash, that might be the cause. If that is the case, try deleting the trash permanently.

Hi Nygon,

See if this function reference can help you at all:
The Post Thumbnail

Although it is about thumbnails, certain parameters are available to select the full size of the image.

And then, you can have a look at this older forum post concerning the same issue: Display Full Size Pictures Instead of Excerpts.

The solution would involve some tweaks in a template file. The reason that I asked what theme you were using is because that could dictate which template file would need to be tweaked.

Hi Vannon,

The answer is yes, but isn’t as simple as copying the content/folder over. The directory structure is a bit different, although is simple enough to understand. Another consideration is whether or not you’d like to use subdomains, so for instance you’d have en.yourdomain.com and fr.yourdomain.com. The other option is using subfolders.

See if this other article makes sense at all: Multisite Network Administration?

I am not being as direct in my responses only because there are multiple approaches that you can take, depending on the need, both currently and moving forward. There are upfront considerations, along with maintenance considerations as well.

Hi Cici,

Yes I believe that due to censorship in China, WordPress.com might still be blocked; although I have read of some individuals that have been able to use it with issues – sometimes minimal, but other times a lot. Unfortunately, that could prevent you from reliably running a blog account. If you want to use WordPress for blogging, your only other option is a hosted account – the method that you are attempting to use.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with wordexpress. If you can clarify that, I might be able to answer your question.

It all depends on how you want to run each site moving forward. Correct me if I am wrong, but based on my understanding of your situation, you will always have a French version of your English site; and translations will be maintained manually/independently. So if a change in the English version is made (i.e. new content added), a corresponding change to the French version would also be made (new content also added but in French).

Warning: towards the middle of the thread, there is a little bit of tension. If you want to just skip right through to the solution, you will need to scroll all the way to the 3rd to the last post by the poster named AmirHelzer for your options.

Hi Nygon,

What theme are you using?

Hi,

Have you had a look at the article Installing WordPress in Your Language? There are multiple steps involved.
