 * No problem! The easiest way is to install the Simple Custom CSS plugin and do
   it there. You won’t have to edit files and won’t lose your changes when installing
   updates later. [https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/)

 * If your user doesn’t have access to publish, you’d probably need them to change
   that. But, if you go to the Users menu, can you edit all the users? Do you see
   the role your own user has assigned?

 * Does your user have access to publish content?

 * If you’ve installed WordPress and are still seeing that page, it usually means
   there’s an index file that’s overriding the index.php file which kickstarts the
   WordPress site. Does iPage have some kind of file browser in their control panel?
   If so, you could use that to get a listing of the files.
 * But, if you’re unfamiliar with all this, it would be best to contact the hosting
   support and tell them that you’ve installed WordPress but still see that message.
   They’ll know exactly what to do.

   Twenty Fifteen theme?

 * I’ve used the first script (it’s not a plugin. It requires manual uploading to
   the server via FTP) and it works great. You don’t need to change anything before
   using it. It’ll take care of all the changes. Either one should do the same. 
   I prefer the first one. Both require caution!

 * Hi,
    As noted on the `query_posts` page, it’s not meant to be used by plugins
   or themes. ([http://cl.ly/image/1e1W0V1J1A2b](http://cl.ly/image/1e1W0V1J1A2b))
   It’s best to WP_Query.
 * See this documentation for querying posts based on custom fields.

 * Hi,
 * If you clear your browser cache and cookies, do the links work as they should?
   If not, if you temporarily deactivate all plugins, does it work?

 * Hi,
 * That’s a Facebook feature and I doubt you can turn it off. I imagine they do 
   it so people know what they’re about to click.

 * Hi,
 * A couple things to try. First, clear all your browser cookies. Second, temporarily
   deactivate all your plugins and see if the problem persists.

 * Hi,
 * Do you have access to the MySQL database via your hosting panel? If so, you should
   be able to look inside the users table to see which email address you used. If
   not, ask your hosting company if they can look for you.
