This issue has been raised on Blogger Community  last year, now the question is locked and comments is disabled. On responsive mobile templates (contempto, Notable, Empirio, Soho) links on a mobile device (android - android web view/Chrome) do not work. On desktop is everything OK. Interestingly, on click <a> does not work, but if a visitor selects to open link in a new tab, they will be opened and displayed correctly. The person who raises this question asked that this issue may be caused by AdSense auto ad code which is implemented.  I have tried to remove all AdSense ads, then the mobile view is RESPONSIVE as normal, no problem at all. You may click any link, and it works fine. I also tried to remove all AdSense from the Layout, but instead, paste a line of Code from AdSense directly into the Template (by clicking the three verticle dots beside the theme preview and then clicking the "Edit HTML"), then the issue seems to disappear on some Android Phone, but seems on ...

Windows 10 with PPTP incoming connection only connects after restart, if you Google it, you will find a very fine article that teaches you how to fix the problem, it mentioned six methods, includes: TCP/IP configuration,  Tray-bar VPN menu bug,  Glitched VPN Network connection, Corrupted WAN Miniport (PPTP),  Corrupted VPN dependency,  PPTP and L2TP miniports are stuck in a limbo state,  these solutions are very technical, for a lay person like me, non of these make sense. I saw somewhere in a discussion group, one person says, he fixed this problem buy turning off Fast Start-up , it's one of the Power Saving options, which is supposed to help start your PC faster after shutdown. You can find it on Control Panel: Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options\System Settings I am not sure exactly what HAPPENS (or not), but it definitely causes one of the afore-mentioned six possible configuration errors and then causes the Incomming Connection...

Some people suggest that website shouold get rid of the "Confirm your passowrd" field on a Sign Up Form, but I have been so used to it, that I typed twice when I signed up a Spotify account, and then my password was displayed as my username. Then I have to close my Spotify account and register again with another email. And this time I noticed that actually Spotify Sign Up Form has only one field for your to privide password, instead of the "Confirm Passord", it's "What Should We call you?" field, that will display the username on the up right corner of the page when you login.

This post is about specific Vodafone Home Broadband Router configuration for Incoming Connection and other service on your home computer. This is not a tutorial, and will not be going into details of the services and router configuaration, I just want to point out couple of points you need to pay attention to. 1. Port Forwarding. Vadafone Router has its own name for Port Forwarding, it's called Port Mapping under Port Management category.The picture below shows that I set up web server on my desktop, I map my local address on port 80; and I set up PPTP incoming connection by mapping local address on port 1723. Port Forwarding 2. Exposed Host. If you have set up Port Mapping, you still can't get what you want, then you have to put your device outside the Firewall, i.e. bypass Vodafone Connects (means Router) firewall, in a Demilitarised Zone (DMZ), using it's Exposted Host Function. Static NAT (Network Address Translation) means the Router will translate publi...

With the help of this post, I have created a bare bone child template for TwentySixteen theme. The  working trick is that you have to put the custom content.php under a folder "template-parts", because TwentySixteen theme expects content.php to be in this folder. If you put it in the root of the child theme, it will be ignored. This child theme include four files: -- the functions.php --the screenshot.png -- the style.css and -- the content.php under the folder 'template-parts'. To download here , then follow the link.

1. How to access your WordPress Blog: After you successfully lauched the instance, use the public DNS or IP address to connect your website: The WordPress default user name is "user" Password is generated randomly, and stored in the system log. You access the log at Actions > Instance Settings > Get system log. After you login to WordPress dashboard, you may change your admin password, or add another user as administrator. 2. Connect to the Ubuntu server. You should note that a public key is required to connect the server, so you'd better generate a new key when you start launching an instance, and download the the .pem file. Putty need a private key to login, you need PuttyGen to generate a private key. Login user name is "bitnami" with the private key. 3. Access to database using phpmyadmin from a browser. The database can only be accessed from localhost, 127.0.0.1, so you need a open a tunnel to do that. Open a putty new session ...

One of Google Play Books "Needs Action" issues is "Pricing information is missing or not applicable",  this is caused by the payment settings, you have to set up "Payment Profile", "Sale Territories", and "Currency Conversion" if you sell your book to the "WORLD". Some authors or publishers spend hours to tweak the Prices setting when they add new books, and feel very confused and frustrated, this happened to me too. Then I realized that you have to set up your Payment Method first, adding bank account for your payment profile. After that you wait for Google to deposit some cents to verify the bank account. You have to add sales territories as well, if the territory is WORLD, you have to TURN ON currency conversion, too. You have also to specify the On-Sale Date, although its help tips (when hover mouse on the question mark ? ) says "Leave this field blank if the book can be made available for sale on Google Play ...

Google Drive Scan Google Drive App Scan is a REAL intelligent scan, unlike some apps which just take pictures and convert them into PDF, it can actually recognize text areas, and trim and format your picture to fit into a page nicely and neatly, even though the picture may have a large corner where your fingers holding on!

Now I believe that I have understood at least these things about Google Affiliate Ads for Blogger: 1. Google Affiliate Ads for Blogger, or the 'Advertise products' Gadget is powered by Google Affiliate Network, we may say this is a ready-made version specially for Blogger users, so you don't need to request to join individual advertiser, and waiting for approval. 2. Google Affiliate Ads for Blogger is now eligible for UK publishers. 3. Google Affiliate Ads for Blogger hasn't got many advertisers 'On Board'. 4.

You need to reload the page to use the gadget again. 6. View Dashboard link will not appear under the until you publish at least one adv...

When I try to download Foursqure App for Blackberry, I received this message, and couldn't download: BlackBerry Support Community Forums : "1 of your download(s) has a higher content rating than your device permits higher content rating than your device permits" This question hasn't been answered in the above-quoted forum, but a Blackberry help blog post gives detailed explanation and warning for how to set up contents ratings. One thing to be repeated here is that you'd better not lock the setting after enabling it with a four-digit security code, because if you forget the password, there is no way to reset it, the only way is by performing a security wipe out of your smartphone.

Updated Unbuntu 11.10 to 12.04 LTS, and am very glad to find that the Flash player settings dialog unclickable problem solved. Before Ubuntu 12.04, each time I connected to a site with flash apps, such as Youtube "Record video from webcam", that want to access the the webcam or microphone,  the Adobe Flash Player Settings dialog freezes, allow/deny buttons are unclickable. I tried to find a solution for that, but gave up at last , because all those suggestions seemed to be useless. I have faith in Ubuntu, I thought to myself, this problem will be solved at the next release. I am sure of that. ^_*
