I cannot see my icons on my homepage in chrome, but I can in safari. I use chrome most often as do alot of my readers. I am very limited in coding, but I know I have made some colour adjustmnents in the child theme. * Can anyone please give me (an idiots) guide to fixing this? I have read alot of threads where people have the same issue and its been resolved, but I admit I don’t understand how to apply to my site. * thanks * Michelle * [http://www.lostinfood.co.uk](http://www.lostinfood.co.uk) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Simple Social Icons] Icons not showing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/icons-not-showing-21/) * [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/icons-not-showing-21/page/2/#post-5555678) * Wonder if someone can help me on this one.

I think things are now sorted as I can now access my wordpress account and plugins and have redirected the domain name! * Thanks! * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/page/2/#post-4229178) * Ok thank you I will do that * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/page/2/#post-4229176) * From my limited knowledge I dont see it pointing anywhere. * When I go to the “vie website” button on my control panel I am directed to [http://94.136.40.103/~lostinfood.co.uk/wp-login.php](http://94.136.40.103/~lostinfood.co.uk/wp-login.php) * From here I try and login, but with absolutely no luck. I have tried every possible combination I have of usernames and passwords ( i have them all written down at the moment!) but no luck. Then when I try and request new password, it wont recognise any usernames that I have used. * Looks like i have managed to mess everything up! * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/page/2/#post-4229174) * Ah see this could be my issue. I am not really sure. * In my control panel for 123reg I have the domain listed as lostinfood.co.uk * From here I do have options to control and it is through these options that I selected wordpress in the CGI scripts. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/page/2/#post-4229168) * Ok faisalwp * Yes I can see the login page when I go to lostinfood.co.uk/wp-login.php * After I login, I ge the url of [http://michellesley.wordpress.com/wp-admin/](http://michellesley.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) * Thanks * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/#post-4229156) * Thanks – I’m not sure if I am explaining myself correctly. I did as asked above and get the login but once that is done I am still taken to my dashboard that I was previously using with wordpress.com in the address. * This dashboard does not give me a menu for adding a plugin. * I have to say I have read alot of information on moving from .com to .org for wordpress and its baffling to me….so I think I may be way out of my depth. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/#post-4229135) * Hi thanks * I’ve logged out of everything to start a fresh browser. Now when I go to lostinfood. co.uk/wp-login I get an “page cant be found’ error ( but the site looks like my wordpress.com site) but when I go to lostinfood.co.uk/wp-admin I am back to my wprdpress.com site – * how can I disconnect the wordpress.com site? * thanks for all the help….I am slowly getting there! * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/#post-4229129) * The domain is lostinfood.co.uk * This could be part of the problem, when I installed wordpress it just brought up another screen and did not ask for any username and password. Has it possibly not installed correctly. * If I go to lostinfood.co.uk/wp-login I get directed to my wordpress.com dashboard * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Using wordpress.org with 123Reg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/) * Thread Starter [michellesley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michellesley/) * (@michellesley) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wordpressorg-with-123reg/#post-4229125) * Thanks * I cannot see any options for upgrading wordpress to the later version on reg123. * This may sound like a very stupid question but how do I login to my wordpress. org page to modify it with themes etc?
