Some Questions on Wordpress

[Cool G5]

The Dedicated wordpress thread has been dead for now, I posted there an month or two ago but got no replies. So I am making this new thread.

I have a few queries regarding Wordpress blogging, please solve them.

1) I need a plugin to link my Imageshack images in my wordpress posts. I tried the "Imageshack wordpress pluing" but it fails giving some error. So I removed it. Any other plugin to do the same?

2) How to change the USER IMAGE which appears in the comment field. Whenever I reply, I just see a gravatar.

3) I got a mail saying that your site provides inaccurate info for the whois. They told me to provide correct info within next 48 hours or they will take down my site. I don't know much about whois, but what should I do? Ravi, are you listening?

4) How to make the post short and add a "Read more" or a similar button to get the Full Post?

2. Did you register at Gravatar.com and upload your gravatar?
3. Post that entire email(with headers). I had "privacy protected" all my domains but never received such an email. It may be a scam!
4. There is a "More" tag. Keyboard shortcut is Shift+Alt+T. Place your cursor where you want to break the text and insert the more tag there!

How can I put a QUOTE box or CODE box in my posts in case I wish to quote something or include GNU Linux commands in my posts?

[victor_rambo]

To quote others, use block quote or cite(cite is not available I think). You may also use 'preformatted' type from the dropdown menu that contains options like "heading 1", "heading 2"..."paragraph"

[gary4gar]

I never received this kind of email for my domain, maybe someone has file a complained against you, that why the are verify.I checked the WHOIS records, they seem correct


But before doing anything, contact ravi(Contact: +91.1127294032)

[victor_rambo]

Gaurav, repost the email will headers(full headers). It may be a phishing attack(though I seriously doubt why one wants to phish you )

Actually these images are Gravatar themselves, so it's obvious you see them. These 'USER IMAGES' are called Gravatar. You should have said that you are seeing the gravatar logo instead of seeing your own gravatar.

The mail sent to you is not phishing. we received complain from http://www.publicdomainregistry.com/ regarding your domain name incorrect whois details. Maybe someone has file a complained against your domain name using this form.
http://www.publicdomainregistry.com/...t-false-whois/

Few months ago, my own one domain name was asked to submit documents. So, don't worry about this, just scan the documents and send as reply to that mail.

However, I have replied to publicdomainregistry and requested not to suspend your domain name. Just to be on safe side, please send scan copy of required documents.
