WordPress Nightmares - Need Your Help

Hey everyone,

Im rebuilding my business site on on the WP platform and have been having HUGE problems getting any Premium WP services to work with it.

I first bought OptimizePress V2 and after 4 days of trying to get it to "Licence" I gave up on that approach.

I then set it up on CloneMyWebsite service but all I get is either a 404 error or a CloudFlare DNS error page. (still in tech support with CMW)

Ive tried both programs on all browsers, flushed DNS multiple times, tried different computers (same internet provider) and still cant get anywhere.

Basic Wordpress themes work fine and I have no problems getting online and accessing & working on any of my HTML sites.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Try creating a backup, re-installing WP, and restoring the backup.

      This is a marketing forum, why not seek out a wordpress forum. That is what I do when I have a problem with my wordpress sites

          When I posted my response the thread was in the main marketing section, I guess the MODS moved it.

            Yes, some mods over there think that everything WP equals "design"...

    Ask someone in Warriors for hire, probably save you a lot of hassle in the long run.

    It sounds like something is missing in your DNS settings and/or you're doing something like CNAME'ing a domain not on CloudFlare to one that is. I would recommend opening a support ticket with CloudFlare & we can take a look.

    If you're trying to develop a page with Cloudflare on, that could be the problem. Clad to see you got a workaround.

    Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.

    What's your excuse?
