Hey everyone. I was wondering if someone might be able to shed some light for me. I am installing my first wordpress blog in conjunction with a video course i purchased. I am up to the point where it suggested RSS feeds. Following tutorial, i installed WP-omatic. After I activated it and tried to set it up I get a new window that states, (Please switch to Firefox / Safari)
I am very new to all of this. Can someone please explain what i should do. The computer is Windows XP.

  • It's a known bug in WP-Omatic, the fix requires you to edit the PHP code in the plugin. Not sure if you feel up to the task, but if you do these links might help:

    WP-o-Matic | My WordPress
    Please switch to Firefox / Safari [thedeadone.net Forums]
    WordPress › Support WP-o-Matic - Please switch to Firefox / Safari

    Essentially the fix is to remove the code that detects Internet Explorer and produces the error message!

    If you're stuck with this let me know and I'l try to help.

  • You really better switch to FireFox / Chrome/ Opera/ Safari if you are user of Internet Explorer.

      How come the recommended switch to firefox. I checked out the promo video and there is lots of features to personalise my page i can see, but from a tech side can you let me know please.

      Thanks

    • That would be stupid. Maybe they could release plugins that work for the majority of internet users.
