Wordpress issues of this blogger

Been trying to upload a couple of videos here using Wordpress but I get all sorts of errors which is pretty upsetting especially when you’ve spent a number of hours just figuring out what to do. At first, I got an error, telling me that the maximum size I could upload a file would be just 2MB. I have to talk this over with my hosting provider to check how I can change that, otherwise, I’d be wasting a number of gigabytes for no reason at all.

When I was able to compress the video file to a lower size, I was finally able to upload it. However, when I tried to insert the video in this Wordpress blog, I was still unsuccessful as it doesn’t have the option to play it when publishing the entry. It would just provide a link to the actual location for users to download. I wanted it to be like a Youtube embedded player in my entry, only the player is by Wordpress and not youtube. Sigh, this has been giving me the headache for the runaround. I know everything will just be simple once I finish reading forums and such, but it’s just nerve-wracking especially when you don’t have enough patience.

I have a problem too, when I downloaded the Wordpress 2.8 version for my main blog (soloflighted.com). It deleted my WYSIWYG editor when creating blog entries. That’s why when I post entries that require me to post pictures, I’d have to look for another blog and then create the post there, convert it to HTML and then paste the HTML code in the main websitel; such a hassle. I was advised to download the beta version of Mozilla, but I’m still wary.

Also, for edcel.net, I wanted to create a gallery and I even uploaded the NextGen Gallery Plugin already. Somehow, I got confused on where I have to go in order to create an album and put the pictures. I’m confused with the term “gallery” and “album” there. Sigh. When all I just wanted was consolidate all my pictures in my website for added traffic, I’m getting all the more lost in the process. I wish it would be much simpler as Multiply.com

Just some issues in Wordpress that this blogger needs to address in order to create a better reading experience for my viewers. Anyway, I guess I better start looking at those FAQs and forums.

    Both Blogger and Wordpress have limitation in dealing with photos and videos.

    I just realized that now. I wish I could just install a video based on a file that is hosted on my database.
