[Hidden-tech] WordPress and FaceBook problem

Wed Jun 3 16:30:40 UTC 2020

David, you still have not told us what WP addon you are using - that 
makes a difference in the setup
You appear to not be using WP.com but that's all I tell

Also, you really need to keep this on the HT list (I added it) so you 
can get input from others.

As for phone calls, someone else might help you there - I don't.
